2004 Louisville GATS show, Louisville, KY.   Len & Carol VanderJagt represented Lantrak at the big GATS show in Louisville KY Jan 10 & 11. This layout, organized by KSONS, the Kentuckiana Sons of N-Scale, was a huge hit, with over 24,000 people attending. The layout was made up of 154 modules brought to the show by 17 clubs from 9 states, with over 21 scale miles of track on the DCC Red Line Route. The great photos of their modules were taken by Phil Brooks of the Knoxville TN N-trak club.


2004 Novi GATS show, Novi, MI.

LaNtrak members turned out in force for the January GATS show in Novi, MI. The layout featured the debut of Jason Stevens’ new module, under construction, which has an s-curved mountain line. It operated flawlessly throughout the weekend. Mark’s n-scale navy continues to expand. New members ran plenty of trains, and there is room for more!

Special Event

On March 7 & 8, 2017 LanTrak was at the Brighton Senior Center, 850 Spencer Road, Brighton, MI.  It was LanTrak getting out and showing off a little for the local seniors and pre-schoolers too.  Our modular layout was there and we had trains running.  Very good time for both the seniors and for LanTrak.


By the way…thanks for dinner Wednesday night, it was delicious!
