The rec.models.railroad FAQ
2001 version

Old, so may contain obsolete information.

Note: I have written very little of the material in the FAQ myself, but I maintained the FAQ for some years. I wrote the short history of model railroading. Regarding some of the other subjects, I'm not an expert at all (especially using computers on model railways).

• Introduction: General
• Where to find more information: Sources
• Running your model railroad: Operations
• Building a layout: Layout building part 1 and Layout building part 2
• Tools and techniques: Construction techniques

You can also use the usenet archive at Google to search for articles in the usened discussion group rec.models.railroad.
