Hello train-heads,
I’m interested in forming my own LTC, and I wanted to know if anyone could
advise me on the procedure, or direct me the info somewhere else. My LUG
brought a train layout to the NWBC, and I thought it would be cool to have
an LTC to go with my LUG.

Keith:
LUG/LTC Potato/Poe-tah-to. It’s just a name. But you need a cool name.
Most LTCs have gone with names that identify their geographic location. And
preferably an acro for which you can secure the domain name (usually .org)
And then you need a cool LOGO. Many LTCs have chosen former railroad logos
(called “fallen flags”) in their region as springboards for their own logos
(as seen HERE).
You probably already knew all that, but what you might not know is that, if
you decide to go with a particular fallen flag, I’d be happy to assist you
with any artwork (as I have for many other LTCs).
LMK at this email addy.

John, of course i knew all that, I think it’s pretty obvious. I’m pretty
stuck on calling it KeithLTC, but I really like the fallen flag idea too.
I’ll do a little research into famous Nevada trains, do you think you can
make a hellish union of both?

Time will tell; sounds like an interesting project!
| |
If I want official ILTCO recognition, what kind of donation and / or hazing
is involved?
|
Well, there are several categories of ILTCO recognition. Even now you could
contact the website and be listed in the “Aware” category. To be recognized as
an “Affiliate” or “Active” requires submitting an application which details
public exhibitions of your layout. There are also minimum membership
requirements as well.
No donations required. Hazing information is strictly confidential; you’ll find
out on a knee to nose basis, ‘kay? Why, I think that’s about the end of it.

| (...) End is the word I'd use. I'll get to the ILTCO site and continue my quest to become a recognized LTC. Thanks John. -Keith (17 years ago, 17-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
