The Legacy Day Demo was a huge plus for the club and for all who attended. We have a gotten a lot of positive feedback, some on the O-Gauge forum. Thanks again to LIONEL and their representatives, Mike Braga and Rick Mosher. Giving up their weekend for the Demo was really appreciated. Congratulations to the winner of the Legacy Unit, Charley McCarthy. Also thanks to all the club members who worked hard to make the Legacy Demo a huge success. Pictures of the event are posted under the 'latest photos' heading, check them out.
