Rather than claim a UK crown, we're going to start local and get
something done.

When put like that, I have to agree. I guess I'd be tempted to do the same
if there were enough train-heads near to me.

What about a
- SBLTC (South)
- SEBLTC (South East)
- HMLTC (Home Counties)
or such like?

Brilliant idea, UKLTC is an ideal utopia, call it what you like. Main thing
is we get something started which has potential for national involvement.

On a smaller scale, discussions regarding best practise/proposed modules
have taken place and proposals will be posted shortly for essential feedback
- please respond with the benefits of your experience, but let's not forget
the main aim is to have fun and play with Lego.


I for one could be tempted into co-operating with others on a more concrete Lego train layout.

Hence the requirement for a standard 'module' size

- Agree a joint layout that could be assembled in say a double garage (so we dont need to hire halls)
- each take ownership for part thereof
- meet once a quarter - or whatever suits (especially if some folks are more local to each other)

Exactly - the concept of regular meetings is essential, hence the localised
emphasis. National/regional meetings would of course be a bonus and bring
many benefits
