The Southern Pacific LEGO® Train Club (SPLTC) is pleased to announce our
upcoming appearance at the 90th National Orange Show Festival “A Slice of
California” at the Orange Fairgrounds in San Bernardino, California.  This will
be the fourth consecutive year that members of our club have been invited to
display at this annual event.

During the recent months, our club members have busy designing and building
another new layout to display this year.  Besides having various locomotives and
rolling stock on the numerous loops of the layout, we will have two train yards
to display the clubs collection of railroad cars.  In other sections of the
layout, we have built up an all new hi-rise downtown area and its neighboring
residential area.

This year’s layout will be in the "The Dome" building (renamed the "Redwood
Valley Railways" for this year’s show), which includes layouts from these other
groups: Orange County "N" Gineers http://www.geocities.com/ocngineers/ , the
Inland Empire Module Railroaders, Kerk Circus, BNSF Operation Lifesaver, Lets
Talk Trains http://letstalktrains.us/, and the Model Railroader's "World's
Greatest Hobby" http://www.greatesthobby.com/.

Not only are all local AFOLs, LUGOLA, SanDLUG and SCLTC members invited to stop
by, but anyone that is visiting southern California area over the Memorial Day
Weekend should stop by and see our all new layout.  It’s a layout that you won’t
want to miss.  And while you are there, you will want to enjoy the other
activates that are going on during the National Orange Show.

The NOS Events Center in San Bernardino is located off the 10 or 215 freeways at
689 South "E" Street in San Bernardino, CA 92408.  For driving directions, click
