Summary

Junctions are centers of activity on real railroads, making them ideal locations to re-create on a model railroad. The Model Railroader's Guide to Junctions takes an in-depth look at prototype crossings, diverging routes, and many other types of junctions, using photos and diagrams to illustrate track layouts and operations. Interlocking towers and their various control systems are explained, along with a step-by-step guide to building a working model of a mechanical interlocking plant.
