What if TLC *wants* a single group to which it can more conveniently communicate,
instead of dealing with 10-12+ different groups?

?? What if TLC or LD wants to support LTCs doing train shows by providing
catalogs, K8s, signs, whatever. A meta-group would be the perfect contact to
negotiate these types of issues, and an IOLTC would be able to monitor for TLC
which groups *are* indeed train clubs (instead of some seedies looking to score
free stuff, for example).
I'm sure that the LTCs that haven't even been formed yet would benefit greatly
from such a group when they do form.
