The ongoing purpose of the Train Gamers Association (TGA) is to facilitate and promote the play of train games. We sanction and run Puffing Billy™ Tournaments at large and small conventions throughout the year.
We will be reworking the web site for the next little while, so you may run into stuff that doesn't look, or work right - please bear with us.
