## Description

The Train Collectors Association (TCA) is a nonprofit organization based in Strasburg, Pennsylvania, dedicated to the hobby of collecting, operating, studying, and discussing toy trains. Recognized as one of the world’s largest and most respected collecting societies, it brings together enthusiasts of all ages through local divisions, chapters, events, and membership programs.

TCA provides educational resources and services for members and the public, including information on toy trains, gauges, layouts, and collecting. Its National Toy Train Museum features an extensive collection and exhibits, while the National Toy Train Library offers books, digital archives, research resources, and materials on toy train history. The Association also publishes magazines, news, and other books, and supports youth clubs for children and teens.

Members and visitors can explore events such as train meets, conventions, and museum open houses, as well as shop for traditional and specialty items. TCA also encourages donations, volunteering, and the contribution of train-related objects to support its museum, library, exhibits, and preservation work.
