This year’s Train Olympics will consist of one event: The Demolition Derby Race. Two or more players will set their trains on a double-figure-8 of track, and try to complete as many laps as they can in two minutes, hoping to avoid (or not) collisions at the quadruple-diamond. Repairs may be made during the two-minute timeframe. Prizes will be awarded to the player who completes the most laps, and the player whose train has the most spectacular crash. All trains must run on official, unmodified LEGO battery boxes.

Competition at the LGMS train layout.

Bring a couple random bags of parts and test your building skill against everyone else participating.

Each contestant will be provided with the same set(s) of $50 in value. Each contestant will have 20 minutes to sort their pieces. There will then be 3 builds of 30 minutes each. Each category will be revealed at the start of each 30 minute window (for example, Nature, Castle, Art, etc.). Builders must use the pieces that are left for their 2nd and 3rd builds. Each contestant must complete at least one entry in minifig scale.

A winning build will be voted for each category, with an overall winner.

This contest requires signup via the website. Cost is $50. Signup will be available when workshop signup opens. Limit 10 contestants.

Do you have a caboose in your LEGO train collection? Bring it on down to the LGMS layout Saturday at 7pm, to take part in the Caboose Train! Let’s gather every caboose in the whole of Brickworld and run them all in one train together. All building styles are welcome, as long as the caboose fits on standard LEGO track and is less than 16 bricks tall. If you’re not sure that your caboose will run smoothly or fit on the layout, bring it over a bit early and we’ll troubleshoot with you. We will start the train with a limit of one caboose per person, but if it runs well enough with that load, we may add more. We will run the train long enough for everyone to take photos and videos before returning the caboose to their owners.

Location: LGMS group train display
