Does anyone own and/or know of these 2 MRR scenery books and if they have the same contents with different front covers?

I own both,
there are some similarities between the content, but they compliment eachother.
The second one shows you techniques by building a few projects (grain elevator loading area, urban scene etc), the other is a more general book.

Thanks Koos, could you tell me which book covers more information on modeling suburbs?
Re: Pelle Soeborg scenery techniques books - torikoos - 11-05-2015
Sorry for my late reply, that is the second book (link) that you posted.

I was able to find and purchase copies of both books. They are the exact same book with different covers

That is strange? Mine don't. One is clearly divided in various small projects, beginning with a 'grain elevator on a siding scene', and the last chapter is 'small town USA', urban scene..
The other book is a more generic one, and is largely based on his previous layout...

I have only the one with the NS engine on the front cover.
The table of content reads:
4 Introduction
8 The Midwest
28 The Rockies
58 The Dessert
80 The Suburbs
102 Index
103 Resources
103 About the author
Might be help full for those of you with the UP engine on the front cover
Re: Pelle Soeborg scenery techniques books - Rscott417 - 01-07-2016
I haven't gotten the book with the UP engine on the cover yet. I found a website that has a "look inside" option for the book with the UP cover and the pages were the exact same as the NS cover. I hope I didn't buy the same book because the seller used the wrong cover for advertising..
