Good stuff Al, Today has also been a great day for the LCCA and LCCUK here in the UK. The Annual LCCUK show was on today in Ilkley, Yorkshire.
Mason and I have met several other LCCA members today. As well as a Lionel fan who flew in from Holland.
The switching tracks boxcar is in attendance.
It has also traveled to Dartmouth in Devon earlier this week and photos taken in a couple of historic locations.

John,  I was unable to attend this event in Des Moines.  Dennis DeVito was there with other volunteers representing the club .  I was sent  a handful of photos.  I expect to receive more soon.  Once I receive more photos from this fun event, I will posts.  Do you know if this photo was taken?
