Hi all!  many of you already know me from my posts throughout the forum.  I have been building a good size (16'x12') HO layout (the New York & Putnam) in my backroom and am getting tired of being a 'Lone Wolf'.  I live in Northern Westchester County, NY right near the Putnam County line in Yorktown.  I would like to form a small Model RR Club in my area.  We could use my layout as a club layout.  The room has a separate entrance and I imagine the layout could support up to 5 or 6 operators at one time and even more after planned expansion.It doesn't have to be a strict club with dues, etc, but rather a collection of friends working together to complete and operate the layout.  I have a decent knowledge of 'modelling' but am lacking in the 'train operations' area.  No experience, money, or even equipment is necessary.  Just an interest in model railroading.The layout is Digitrax DCC, benchwork is done and track laying is almost complete.  After wiring, it will be ready for scenicking.  I already have alot of structures ready to be built (including the walthers 130' turntable, 3 roundhouses, backshop, coal tower, 2 factories, etc, etc.)  The New York & Putnam uses HO scale New York Central equipment (also New Haven) and is in the transition era (1940's-1950's).If you live in my area and might be interested in forming such a club, just leave a post here and we'll see where it goes.  If not, at least I tried.
