Arnhemworld 2022

Autumn break, mid October, usually that meant the highlight of the LEGO event calender of the year. LEGOWorld Utrecht, we’ve participated in the event in the past, both as LLMTC (2018 and 2019) and even before the birth of the LLMTC. Sadly the event is no more as a victim of a changing business model from TLC (The LEGO Company). To still be able to play with trains, we decided to organise our own get togheter.

The “official” event brick as designed by Raised

We decided to keep it simple, as later turned out, that did not work out. The more the preparations rolled out, the more complicated the ideas got. In the end NicolasTBX (our French friend) and Nick Kleinfelder (one of the Noppenbahner) joined as well with a massive yard and level crossing respectively.
