Thank you to the Puget sound lego train club!
The Puget Sound Lego Train Club was founded in September of 2004. We are one of two clubs that came out of the split of the Pacific Northwest Lego Train Club (PNLTC) into separate northern and southern clubs. PNLTC was one of the pioneers in the Lego Train Club community (yes, there are more of us) and had a great 7 years. We started out as 3 guys living a couple hundred miles apart who put on shows in Portland, OR and Seattle, WA and grew into a club of 30 members putting on as many as 10 shows in a year.
