The Lionel Collectors Club of America (LCCA) is home to one of the most prominent member organizations of model train collectors in the world. Our site offers news, photos, videos, and event information to all Lionel train enthusiasts, and our worldwide membership of nearly 10,000 members enjoys additional benefits, including an exclusive network to buy, sell, and trade Lionel model trains and other brands.

The Lionel Collectors Club of America is thrilled to announce the update and release of three cornerstone collections in our Digital Archives: the complete four‑volume Holtmann Consumer Catalog Archives (1900–1995), the fully restored Osterhoff Postwar Instruction Sheets Volumes 1–4, and the complete run of Lionel Consumer Catalogs from 1996–2010. Together, these releases span more than a century of Lionel history, now presented with crisp digital reproduction, standardized navigation, and a clean, modern interface designed for effortless exploration.
As we continue our multi‑phase restoration project, please note that additional sections of the Digital Archives remain under construction and will return to the website as each collection is finalized. Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm as we rebuild this museum‑grade resource for all Lionel enthusiasts.
The LCCA encourages all members to participate in the LCCA Convention Trading Hall. The LCCA recognizes that some members are commercial vendors, and some are members of other train clubs, both local and National Clubs.
When a member purchases a trading hall table, they can promote themselves, their business or their train club at their table. Any such non-LCCA promotion must be respectful and consistent with the friendly atmosphere of the Hall and must remain within the confines of the member’s assigned trading hall space. The final determination of what is acceptable will be determined by the Trading Hall Manager.
Under no conditions will members, commercial operations, or other train clubs place advertising posters, flyers, or displays outside the Trading Hall or public areas adjacent to trading hall. The Trading Hall is an LCCA sponsored event and should not be confused with other businesses or clubs.
The LCCA has a similar policy in its Convention Hotel(s). No non-LCCA promotional materials are to be posted within the Hotel hosting the convention.
