I'm amazed at how small scale Z (1:220)  really is.

Hi Hub,

I thought for a moment that it would be fun to have a few slot cars in this scale...
Until I discovered that, for example, a Porsche 911 model would be approximately 20 x 10 mm in size... 
Totally impossible (now) to make something like that workable...
Or is there a genius wizard among us...

Hi all,

The new free 85 page, issue number 219, October 2023 Trainini magazine for 1:220 scale (Z scale) model trains is available now.
This is about a small scale, but in my opinion, the techniques described can be applied to any scale.
Great to create a garden or park layout with these little  trains on your racetrack...
