I was actually just trying to find out the name of the book myself when I came across your question... The book is "Model Railway Men" by Ray Pope.

It was definately one of my favourite books from childhood (also 30+ years ago :-) - especially as I had a train set in a homemade pullout shelf under my bed! I've also discovered there are actually more books in the series - Model Railway Men Take Control and Model Railway Men in America.. Can't wait to read those too...
