                                                                   Foster M. ‘BRITISH TOY TRAINS’ Book 1.

 

 

Volume one of Michael Foster’s series on the history of the smaller & more obscure British toy train manufacturers.

 

The result of over thirty years of collecting & painstaking research by Michael, renowned for his seminal work on Hornby Dulbo published by New Cavendish books, way back in 1980.

 

 

British Toy Trains volume 1 covers the products of Whitanco, Burnett, Chad Valley, Palitoy & Astra.

 

Meticulously researched over many years, the book explores the history of these long lost companies & then examines the full product range of each, drawing on the author’s own collection & those of fellow collectors in order to illustrate as fully as possible the wonderful toy trains they manufactured. 

 

Landscape format, glazed card covers, 130 pages, hundreds of full colour illustrations + black & white archive images from contemporary catalogues.

 

 
 

Volume 2 which is devoted to the extensive pre-war Brimtoy range. 23.50 inc. P&P

 

Volume 4 which covers post-war Brimtoy production + a number of ‘one hit wonders’ 25.50 inc. P&P.

 

Volume 5 documents the whole of the Mettoy toy train range. 25.50 inc. P&P

 

These are all currently available from me, discounts on postage if you are buying two or more at a time.
