Attention TCA Members -- Membership Card Change
As some of you may have noticed, the membership cards have recently received a minor makeover. They now contain the TCA Standards Statement on the back, which reads:

I agree to comply with all of the rules and regulations of the Train Collectors Association™ (TCA) and its Divisions and Chapters in effect from time to time, specifically including all the rules and regulations of all TCA Committees. I also agree that all items sold by me to any TCA member or at any TCA sponsored meet shall be sold on the basis that I represent that all such items are authentic and in the manufacturer’s original condition unless I have caused any such item to be appropriately marked as a restoration or reproduction.

This statement MUST be signed by the member named on the front of the card in order for the card to be valid.
