I received the attached letter in the mail a few days ago.  It relates what going to happen with the LRRC to LCCA transition.  As far as I'm concerned the most important part is this:

 

"Dual LRRC/LCCA Member: Those of you who currently have dual memberships in both LRRC
and LCCA will have two options going forward. Dual members can choose to either receive
a $1.67 per month check based on the number of months left starting September 1, 2014 in
your LRRC membership or, to make things simpler, a $3.00 www.lionelstore.com credit."

 

I can't wait to get my $1.67 per month checks!

Chris,

 

I acknowledge the money is not much, but the refund amount is based upon the LRRC annual dues payment.   I think it shows that Lionel wants to be fair with all of their LRRC members.   Lionel wanted to make certain all LRRC members who are also current members of the LCCA are refunded their LRRC membership dues on a pro rated basis (based upon the various lengths of remaining membership tIme).    To me it demonstrates a solid commitment and good faith effort from Lionel to their LRRC Members.   Welcome all LRRC members to the LCCA!

Al,

 

I agree with all you said.  I think the refund is an excellent gesture of good faith.  And I for one think merging the clubs will be a good thing.    I just couldn't help myself.  It just made me chuckle to read it.  

 

I hope the LCCA membership shows good growth as a result of this merger.  

 

Hope to see you at the NJ Hi-Railers soon.

 

Chris

Yes, the LCCA has 13,642 members now.  Welcome all LRRC and new LCCA members!  Let's have some fun!
