First Look - LCCA/Lionel Fastrack Modular Layout
The LCCA/Lionel Fastrack Modular Railroad Layout was introduced to the public during our 42nd Annual Convention in Norfolk VA. This new modular layout is intended to encourage as many model train enthusiasts as possible to get into the hobby, demonstrating their skills from a full size layout all the way down to a single module. Do it yourself, build a kit or have TrainWorx build a module for you, then decorate it in any way that you desire, with any theme you chose. Then bring it to one of the future events planned by the LCCA / Lionel to create HUGE modular layouts that easily fit together utilizing the standards created for these modules. They are light weight, in a size that should fit in just about any automobile, yet give you the opportunity to run the biggest Lionel engines
made on O-72 & O-84 FasTrack! Great way to get into module railroading using a track system you enjoy already with a group of train buddies too!
We think every Lionel Authorized Dealer and every train hobby business should own at least one module. Companies can decorate the front facade of each module with your company's logo. This will be great advertising and allow one to take an active role in introducing the magic of Lionel Trains to new people outside of the current hobby.
Stay tuned for more information and the publishing of the LCCA/Lionel Fast Track Modular Railroad specifications.
