Off the top of my head I cannot recall the title, but a friend whom I am helping build a layout for has a library of books covering all aspects from Canals to Standard Gauge railways and has a small collection of miniature railway books within it. The reason I like the book (I will hopefully be able to come back with the title on Tuesday eve) is that it has pictures of the Oakhill Manor Railway, and that it has a picture my favourite miniature engine of all time taking up one page just inside the cover. 10 1/4 inch gauge Guest 'Black 5' LMS 4-6-0 No. 5156 'Ayrshire Yeomanry'. Maybe members who have this book may be able to identify it for me?
