Faszination Spur 1
Small anniversary
Half a year has passed since our website went live. By the deadline, we had a total of 22,000 visitors and almost 72,000 page views, with a steady upward trend. We would like to thank all our readers for such a great response - we hadn't expected it ourselves.
This great interest is motivation enough to continue on our path, with up-to-date information from the scene, the industry and the editorial team, with special events and additions to articles from the printed magazine, etc. We will gradually realise further ideas and suggestions from our readers. Together with our presence on Facebook and Instagram as well as the weekly newsletter, our wide-ranging platform for everything to do with Track 1 will continue to flourish.
Our new Faszination Spur 1 magazine, issue 35, has just been delivered. As promised, modellers in particular will get their money's worth this time.
