Welcome

Over the years the modellers of the Manchester Model Railway Society have contributed many informative articles for the benefit of several generations of railway modellers.

Since many of these magazines have been long out of print we decided to see if something could be done to preserve these articles in a compilation using the tools now available to us.

This selection is the result of much hard work by Dave Booth, Bill Newton and Ralph Robertson and we hope that you will find something of interest to you in your own modelling. If you improve your skills as a result of these articles then it has been worthwhile.

If any past or present members have had articles published and they are not present in this compilation then they should use the above email address to advise us and when we next revise the collection we will endeavour to include their contribution.

How to use this compilation

  • Articles are catalogued by author and title and also by magazine.
  • Follow the link on the left to select the article you want to find and read.
  • All articles have been scanned and produced as PDF documents so that they retain as much of the picture and drawing quality that we can produce. We have done the best we can given the limitations of old yellowed post-war poor quality paper and low resolution photos and please bear in mind that some of the articles have been bound into books.
  • If you do not have Adobe Acrobat reader on your computer use the link on the left to install it. If you already have Adobe Acrobat reader installed you may need to upgrade to version 6 in order to view these articles correctly. Adobe Acrobat reader is free - simply use the link to install/upgrade it.
  • Take the time to read the important information below.
