Event "Thank Yous"

 Thanks to the dealers and customers for making the 2018 Train Show and Expo a success!  Please note that  the first Sunday in October will now continue as our assigned slot at Chrin.
Thanks also to the patrons of our Atlantic City excursion that took place on a sun drenched, crackling hot August Saturday.  Adding timely significance to the train trip portion was NJT's decision to suspend Atlantic City operations shortly thereafter for PTC installation.      

Monthly Meetings

Unless superseded by a special event, monthly meetings are held the third Saturday of the month at the LANTA offices at 1060 Lehigh Street, Allentown, PA 18103 (see map).  Use the Customer Service entrance on the northwest side of the back of the building.  Use the stairs or elevator to reach the second floor meeting room.  Meetings begin at 7PM.  Our inclement weather policy is that if a winter storm watch, storm warning, or weather advisory is in effect for the Allentown area, the meeting is cancelled.

Annual Events

Outings and Banquets

We hold an annual event that ranges from a picnic to a banquet and presentations to an excursion on an area passenger short line,   (Top photo of 2016 excursion by Kermit Geary, Jr.; side photo by Doug Peters.)
