Hi All, Well it’s been a long road organizing ILTCO, but we’re finally there!

The organizing committee (OC) has been at it for 11 months, with about 2000 email messages on the OC list alone. We’ve had several face-to-face meetings and over 30 hours of conference calls! With that said we have discussed and rediscused many topics exploring each from the perspective of new club - old club, big club - small club, from the angle of how to govern to what relationships to foster with other entities such as; NMRA, GATS, LEGO Direct etc.

Our goal was not to have all the answers but to create a framework that can accommodate and support different types of memberships, future decisions about governing, and new relationships. We know that there will be holes uncovered as we grow from zero members to the current breath of clubs out there today and perhaps even more as we grow into the future. We ask that members take an active role in participation and help strengthen the organization. L-gauge is already an active and viable model railroading alternative that you all have made that happen. Being organized will only cement its position as one of the fastest growing model railroading alternatives.

So what does this all mean...

Individual membership enrollment is now open! So please drop by ILTCO and join now by clicking on the word and JOIN found on the right side of the page just below the gray horizontal menu bar. We encourage you (as required by the membership application) to read the Bylaws, Policies & Procedures, and the Terms of Service. These along with the FAQ will answer many questions you may have. For further questions please ask your club representatives, they have been through this process already. If you are not a club member and are joining as an individual you may submit questions directly at QandA@ILTCO.org.

Thanks for your patience and we hope that you would consider joining the ILTCO.

Steve Barile - President
