Tax included.


Peter Angus may, or may not, be a name you will immediately recognise, but he is probably the most prolific builder in the world of small-scale live steam locomotives. Working with his colleague Mike Lax, over three hundred locomotives have so far been constructed.

You will find photographs of the vast majority of Peter’s locomotives within the pages of this book, but there is much more, including historical and technical details of the prototypes, how the models have been built, the ways he ensures their realistic performance, the different methods of firing, how he often fits unobtrusive radio controls, and so on, all whilst keeping a near scale appearance.

221 pages, hardback, including archive B&W photos of prototypes and hundreds of colour photographs of models in various stages of assembly, plus some drawings.
