For those of you who may not have attended a WGHOT show, you don't know what your are missing. Trains, trains and more trains of all shapes and sizes are there for the enjoyment of the entire family. Bring the kids, grand kids, neighbors, friends, they will have a ball! The LCCA is committed to being at this show to help introduce the club and Lionel toy trains to a generation that may not have grown up playing with Lionel trains as children.
The LCCA team of volunteers will staff a booth adjacent to Lionel's operating layout and display. We are certain you will enjoy LCCA's Mini-operating layout which was designed and built by TW TrainWorx of Dallas TX. This layout demonstrates what can be done within a very small area.
The LCCA is also bringing the new LCCA/Lionel FasTrack Modular Railroad layout to this show in St Louis. If you have any questions about this modular layout concept, you can meet with LCCA's Bill Schmeelk who is the Chairman of the Lionel/LCCA FasTrack Modular Railroad System committee.
We may need your help in setting up, operating the layout during this weekend train show and then for the teardown. This is a golden opportunity for you to get involved with the club and introduce the Magic of Lionel Trains to thousands of people in just a couple of days. If you and any of your friends are interested in helping out, please stop by the booth and inquire.
For more information about our modular layout and kits, go to the "FasTrack Modular" section of our website www.lionelcollectors.org or the Lionel site at www.lionelstore.com
Come and see the Lionel layout and speak with Lionel personal. Bring your children or a friend and introduce them to the magic of the train hobby and the camaraderie of the LCCA. We'll welcome them into the club as new members of "the best toy train club on the planet"! We hope to see you there! We know you will have FUN!
