Rolling Stock
Introduction
This part of the Manual covers aspects of freight and passenger rolling stock. It covers the important mechanical features that are built into models to best provide realistic, practical, robust and reliable operation. Although some solutions bear no resemblance to the prototype, they work well in model form. As in most areas of model making, there are more ways than one of achieving the satisfactory end result, so no solution is definitive, but where possible, the various options will be covered and it is up to the individual to decide which option is preferable for any situation.
