Book Description
This book was originally published in 1952 by the A.C. Gilbert Company and has been reprinted by Bibliographic Press as a quality paperback printed on acid- free paper. It provides extensive information about all aspects of American Flyer trains and is enhanced by dozens of illustrations and charts. It is an essential tool for anyone who wants to (in the words of the old Gilbert slogan) "Make it Real" with American Flyer equipment.

From the Publisher
Many have fond memories of American Flyer trains of this era, which seem indestructible, but in contrast to the trains, few instruction manuals have survived as they were originally printed on low-quality paper. It is for this reason that we are proud to make a high quality edition of this useful book available to train enthusiasts.
