So, the Vancouver TraiNgang has a new logo, courtesy of member Dan Janelle. This is the club's 25th Anniversary year, so we've switched logos for the time being...

Traditionalists can rest assured that the old much cherished logo will re-appear in a few months, but until, thank to Dan for his efforts to help us mark the anniversary

For members, this logo is available on various items of club gear until the end of 2011.

When, where....

See you there...

On behalf of the Vancouver TraiNgang, I wish all of our viewers a happy and holy Christmas, and a successful and prosperous 2011!

Anyone remember the days of store displays with model trains running between the toys and other attractions...? Here's one of our members perusing a display layout in downtown Vancouver, and in November 2010 to boot!

Following on the heels of the third place club layout award at the 2010 Mt Cheam Lions show, the Vancouver TraiNgang scooped 2nd place in the popular vote contest at TRAINS 2010 in Burnaby in November 2010.

Hello folks,

The November 2010 Burnaby Heritage Village show is now a week later than originally posted - check the Schedule page for the correct dates!

At the 2010 Mt Cheam Lions Hobby Show in Chilliwack, BC., the Vancouver TraiNgang was awarded 3rd place in the club layout category.

First place went to the Salmon Arm Model Railroad Association for their beautiful HO layout, and second went to the Mount Rainier N-Scale Club from Olympia, WA, for their magnificent N-trak layout.

Congratulations to all on jobs well done!
