I believe the NMRA (www.nmra.org) has a list of clubs in the US and Canada. You could try making a modular layout, or even a small switching layout to begin. One of the local clubs here has a switching layout based on John Allen's "Timesaver", which is a great little puzzle layout. It takes up about 2x6 feet. Try these sites - http://www.naisp.net/users/mfischer/m_train2.htm http://www.wymann.info/ShuntingPuzzles/small-layouts.html http://www.carendt.com/ (This was not working as of this morning, but is usually up, so try again...) Here is a link to making lightweight benchwork that is easy to move: http://www.railwaybob.com/Modules/MRIndex.htm -> follow the "modules" link. Bob has advised that you would be better off with the 2" extruded (pink or blue) foam than the 1.5" he recommends in his "how-to". Warning - a bit photo intesive for dial-up users. Good luck...!
