Some of us fill out our profiles so others can see our names or states and ask to visit when they are in the area. We love visitors if they call ahead and make sure we are home. Year round.
I should go check my profile and see if it needs up dated.
Plus I meet a guy from the same club I'm in on line when he filled out his profile. Did not know who he was for a long time.[;)][:D]

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

You might check the June issue (out soon) for the list of permanent railroads. Also, check the club directory and contact a club near you to ask if you can attend a meeting or two. Many clubs have open houses and welcome visitors too.

Why don't you come and visit me; I must be one of your closest neighbours, I specialise in tropical railways. You just hop on a plane at Kennedy direct to Brisbane and I am only about an hour north of there by road, I'll even come and pick you up at the airport.
