Andrew,
Do you mean the train posters created by Jeroen,

If you mean the latter, then I think you have to deal with iltco (Jake
made it pretty clear a while back that communication to train clubs
needed to go through the itlco.
Actually, a letter to LEGO Consumer affairs pointing out that you are
part of a train club that goes to model railroading events, that people
always ask about LEGO trains and are surprised to see LEGO trains, and
that you wished that you had some literature to show those people might
get some kind of response. Well, they always respond, but the response
may or may not be helpful.
