RE: Magazines - ePilot - 2nd-Nov-21

Hi all,

Yes, I am playing with model trains too...
That's why I found a few years back the magazines mentioned in this post...
The magazines below are mainly focused on model railroading and in English language. 
But they can still be interesting for the slot racer because there are many topics, techniques and tools that 
are described that can also be used on a slotrace track.
And yes, there are slotracing hobbyists who combine both cars and trains...
These magazines (in PDF format) are legally FREE to download or read online.
There are lots of back issues of these magazines available too.

If you don't think it's of any value I won't mention these magazines here anymore. Please let me know...
