Autorenporträt

Chris Ford has been a modeller since childhood, starting with simple plastic and balsa wood kits. By his teens he had become almost exclusively interested in railway modelling. Chris has built many model railway layouts over the years both for home use and public exhibition display. Most of these layouts have featured in the model railway press and two have won the coveted Reiner Hendriksen award. This is Chris's third book for Crowood, following his acclaimed Modelling Narrow Gauge Railways in Small Scales and Modelling the Southern Region 1948 to the Present.
