Carstens is no stranger to the world of narrow gauge modeling. Some of the earliest articles featuring On30 (then called "On2½") were printed in pages of Carstens' magazines in the late 1950s and 1960s. We are proud to build on that tradition and offer great publications created especially for the narrow gauge enthusiast. Our popular Narrow Gauge Annuals are packed with tours of beautiful layouts, inspiring modeling features, and accurate and interesting information about the prototype.
Our veteran authors don’t just TELL you what they did, they SHOW you with detailed text and sharp, colorful photos. From the peaks of Colorado, to the heartland of the Midwest, to the rolling mountains of Pennsylvania, to the backwoods of Maine, from steam to diesel, passenger to freight, there's something for everyone. Bring the exciting world of narrow gauge model railroading to your fingertips with Carstens' Narrow Gauge Annuals!
