LEGO Train fans! The time has finally come! It is time for our hobby to build to the correct scale of LEGO track, which is 1:38, or as I call it: L-Gauge Proto (LGP). It is easily referenced as 1 stud to 1 foot, or, in width parlance: 10wide. 20 years ago, I advocated for 8wide, and now, like the Jeffersons, I’m moving on up! It makes sense now, given the plethora of 3rd party suppliers, 3D printing technology, and the general acceptance of non-LEGO (impurity!) elements in LEGO train MOCs. The TCLTC has decided to debut this idea by presenting our upscaled version of the Brick Model Railroader NMRA caboose. We are busily creating more LGP MOCs, and hope that all you other fine, LEGO train builders join us, in order to create the most awesome LEGO train MOCs possible! Leg Godt!

This year we lost a dear friend in the LEGO community, and so we decided to honor him, as well as 2 more friends whom we’ve lost over the years, in a little vignette. We miss you all, Tom, Rob, and Gary!

A lot has been happening behind the scenes with the TCLTC, but the short version is that we will be displaying at the NMRA National Convention in Kansas City this weekend, along with some other, pretty amazing LEGO train clubs. We are very excited to debut a few, new MOCs that we believe are totally awesome! Stay tuned for exciting pics and vids!

We just finished a remodeling of our well cars, and boy are they cool! We still need to sticker them up properly, but check them out. We have modeled 3 types of the Gunderson intermodal well cars: a single Husky Stack, a Maxi-Stack I (5 articulated units, 40’ length wells), and a Maxi-Stack IV (3 articulated units, 53’ length wells). And as if that weren’t enough, check out Ross’ Maersk containers: yup, they’re Maersk blue, and metallic silver! Killer! Enjoy!
