Hi all -

SCLTC has just finished its latest show!

http://www.scltc.org/pages/galleries/events.asp


Can't believe I'm only the second one to post. Great great work!

Over the weekend, the club displayed at the Fullerton Train Station. We had
a great time, showing off what we do best to a semi-drenched public during
Saturday's downpour and a massive crowd on Sunday.

New layout features included:

- A large downtown section with highrise buildings and the President's
motorcade.
- A LEGO version of the South Hall at the University of California, Berkeley.
- A southern California style beach complete with sunbathers, lifeguards,
surfers, and offroading SUVs.
- A large yard with pass through sidings, an intermodal loading platform,
and SCLTC's first working turntable and roundhouse!
- A train station the size of a small planet.
- Various new town structures and additional cool stuff.

All around a TERRIFIC layout, with an amazing train station.

The other thing that I loved (on the other end of the scale) was that
wonderful sand castle! Love it!

Unfortunately, my photo pass didn't manage to capture every square foot of
the layout (some neat things on the layout aren't yet in the gallery), so
I'm hoping to add more pictures of the layout taken by other members of the
club (besides just me). So stay tuned.

Until then, enjoy the pictures and let us know what you think!

Can't wait!

Jake
