(1) There was a small article in the back of the magazine about a British
layout, The Madder Valley Railway, which I instantly recognized as being one
which was in this book (though interestingly, the magazine shows a layout plan
which is different from either of the two in the book, the magazine plan looks
like it was a transitionary plan between the two in the book). What was real
nice is that a few years ago, I acquired a new copy of this book which didn't
have the covers torn off (I don't ever remember the cover, so my childhood
copy must have been abused when I got it).

This layout still exists!...The Madder Valley Railway exists in probably the
best model railway museum in the world, at Pendon (Oxton).  The MVR went
through many versions in the time that it existed, the current one is different
again.
