Previous 2025 Meetings & Tours
January 25th General Meeting Hosts – Denny & Charlene Dahle. – The TCVCC/AACA January Meeting kicked of 2025’s club activities in fine style as over 40 club members turned out for our first get-together of the new year, a tour of the Treasure Coast Model Railroad Club’s HO railroading display in Port Saint Lucie. Those who turned out were not disappointed, as the railroad club’s detailed display depicting railroad yards, industry, city & countryside locales, and of course, trains, was incredible.
