The Lionel Collectors Club of America is proud to be headed back to Chattanooga TN for the 43rd Annual Convention to be held July 14-20, 2013 at the Chattanooga Choo Choo Historic Hotel.  The Convention Registration forms will be published in the February issue of our club publication The Lion Roars and on our website in early February.  Since some of the tours have very limited seating capacity, you will want to register early.  Registrations will be processed on a first come, first served basis.  The first 400 members that register and stay at the Chattanooga Choo Choo Hotel for a minimum of three nights  will receive a Lionel Lines Vulcan Switcher engine as a registration gift.  Make your plans now for your family's summer vacation in Chattanooga.

Choo Choo Bob Carter and his volunteer team have been working hard to provide enjoyable activities and tours for the entire family to enjoy.  We will have Real Train Excursions, Lionel Trains,  Boat Dinner Cruise, and Civil War historical activities scheduled throughout the week.  Come and meet with Representatives from Lionel.  We are certain you will have a fun, Lionel Train filled week.  Stay tuned for additional details and planned surprises as we get closer to the convention.
