(...) 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 (...) (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Sorry. (...) Do you mean an LTC that will be recognised by ILTCO? Given that you could legally change your name to KeithLTC and can walk around calling yourself whatever you want I assume you can have KeithLTC without any hassles. Having it (...) (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I can't believe you'd even ask me that question Tim. With an ego the size of Montana, do your really think I'd use a geographical location in my LTC title? KeithLUG defies conventional geo-political boundaries: well...we have 3 Canadian (...) (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I'm not exactly sure that there's a formal requirement for having an LTC. I always just assumed it meant that a group of people got together and built train layouts. But I could be wrong... Tim PS. Is that KeithLTC or NevLTC? (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

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 (...) (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

With all the advances in battery (rechargeable and otherwise) technology these days, you might be a little shortsighted in your estimation of the feasibility of battery trains. But assuming you are correct, my biggest concern about this idea is the (...) (17 years ago, 15-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)
