After many, many months of getting people to join in, planning and building,
Southern California REALLY DOES HAVE A LEGO TRAIN CLUB! Our participation
at this weekend's GATS in Anaheim, CA proved to be very successful and we
came out with a first place award for our work. As expected, like many
others, a most common response heard was "I didn't know LEGO made
trains???". People there were very intrigued with the creations and, as
expected, the kids there went nuts. We began with lots of info fliers of
the club at opening on Saturday and before Sunday was over we were out
(Post-It (tm) to the rescue). Set up and take down went very smoothly, with
some of the expected first time glitches during operation (rail yard a bit
small) but managed well. A rendition of this GATS layout is available
through our site (http://www.scltc.org/pages/layouts/gatsjanuary2002.htm)
but photos won't be up for some time (best guess is about a week). A notice
will be posted on .trains as soon as they are.

| Yeah you did! I can't wait to see the pics! Any idea of how many people were in attendence. I can imagain that a GATs in a large metro area like LA or NY could be 5x what we get in the smaller cities. Although we're all eager to see the pics, take (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
