Tucked away in a drawer, I discovered a “Model Railroad Equipment Buyer’s Guide 1965-66” booklet, published by Kalmbach Publishing. It contained a variety of books, tools, and yes, model trains.  While the majority of the booklet focused on HO scale trains, page seven was a surprise. It contains several American Flyer train sets and scenic panels.

I’ve scanned several pages of interest for our readers, including the Flyer trains, some of the books Kalmbach published at the time, tools, and the back page, which has a list of hobby shops that sell these products.
