The poster admitted he used a wrong term and closed the auction.

PM the guy and ask for his TCA number and find out who he is.

Maybe he's just blowing smoke.

You don't even need two members anymore, just sign up and pay the $35.00. TCA membership gives you a quarterly magazine, a paper periodical and the right to attend the eastern division York meet. It sets standards for the hobby, doesn't make you an expert on anything.

There isn't a pop quiz for joining the TCA - enthusiasm for toy trains, and as mentioned, the price of membership - are the key elements. You don't have to know Fandor from Dorfan ... and I guess most people would want it that way.

The only requirement now is the money, which is $35 or $50 per year, depending on which part of the web site you are looking at.

That is funny Laugh  Tender/Caboose?  Take your choice.

Being a member of TCA only means two things:  two members validated you and you paid your dues.  Nothing more.  Well, you do get to go to York and THAT is a big deal, IMO Thumbs Up
