Trains: A Complete History Paperback – July 29, 2014

I bought this book because of my grandson's interest in trains. WOW, it was a BIG HIT on Christmas morning. The perforated paper parts are easy to remove from the printed page without further assistance; e.g., razor cutter, etc. Be advised, you will need a quick drying paper glue and patience. Yes, this book has helped my grandson practice patience because he wants the finished product to be right. All engines are printed on a single page with directions for assembly at the back of the book. Have some quality time with your young ones - buy this book.

This book was great for our son - the punch out parts were easy enough for him to do it by himself andhe was able to construct them without our help.

I bought this for a gift, so I cannot day how the assembly actually went. However, I have the other three books in the series, and we love them! I knocked off a star because the directions are very poor, which can be frustrating. However, the models are all so unique, and the history of the train is right above the model. The train book looks very complicated with a lot of little pieces, but I view it as a way to take my time when working through the book. I intend to purchase this book for myself later this year and will review it then.

Diversity and accuracy of simple models is amazing.

Hours of runs for both my kids! They can’t get enough of these books. We have the Car, Train and Plane ones!

8 year old train lover went crazy when he saw his gift. Good quality and lots of fun

These are great to put together and informative, filled with great info about trains.

Got this for my dad who is a train buff and he loved it. Does not want to assemble the trains though, wants to keep it all in tact. He loves the colorful and detailed trains.
