The Southern California LEGO Train Club (SCLTC) opened its first ever show at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda, California earlier this month. SCLTC joined the Train Collector Association (TCA) in its third winter holiday show at the library.



The theme of the combined event is mountains and bridges. SCLTC provided 8 bridges: an all new 20-foot, 4-track suspension bridge with 10-foot main span; a 15-foot, triple tower cable stayed bridge; a 7.5-foot arch truss bridge; twin 12.5-foot trestle bridges, and more. The layout features a huge city, separate town, massive intermodal freight yard, six operating wind turbines, Booty Bay pirate cove, revamped Inter-rail station, and 8 operating train loops. The city boasts new skyscrapers including fully appointed twin triangular towers, an art museum, and several towers by one of our newest member.

I contribute much of my return to LEGO as an adult to you guys. The pictures on your website and elsewhere inspired me more than any thing else. Thanks! Scott (URL) (14 years ago, 20-Dec-09, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc)
