Project Roar’s publications start with a clean slate. Our research begins with manufacturer documents and samples of the actual item(s) we’re writing about. This allows our historians to write publications based on facts and not popular myths. Readers benefit from objective and complete publications.

1,000's of documents like these are what we use to write our books making them the most authoritative Lionel research ever published.

We're featuring examples of artwork and blueprints used in writing the Authoritative Guide to Lionel's Postwar Operating Cars.

I hope you have as much fun looking at this artwork as I did researching the items and scanning the artwork.  Enjoy!
