Congrats Folks,  I will put you in the queue for the LUGMAP (along with about 6
other groups, sorry folks I've been busy).

Hi everyone! I'm pleased to announce the formation of a rather infant LEGO train club, the Northern Illinois LTC. So far, we're only a handful of members, and right now half of that handful are pretty busy, but we wanted to get the ball rolling. (...)
