Bill Chaplik posted:with your impending move. I tried it for some years following retirement ( NC not FL) and found my new digs to be an O-Scale desert.Pamlico County. Nearest City was New Bern, about 30 miles away, also an O-Scale desert. Back in 1991 the National O-Scale Convention was in High Point, and there were a few but widely scattered layouts to visit.
Yes, definitely a desert for O scale modeling. I go on a frequent basis to Oriental to sail, but I feel your pain.
Raleigh/Cary has one layout in 2 rails and another one in the making. Not much for 1 million plus inhabitants in the Triangle.
