I'm all by my lonesome. I live in the Spokane WA area and know of 2 large HO semi-public layouts in the area where you have to be members and pay dues. I just can't afford the dues at this time, 20 a month. I'm also new at o-scale and am enjoying it. Big difference from the other 2 scales, ho/n. No pun intended.
I do wish I had local friends who were into trains like me. I'm more of a collector who wants to build a simple layout eventually. Most people think I"m odd having the hobby. LOL

There have got to be people in your area! I know several members of the Great Northern Railway historical society live in Spokane. Also, you might want to check into joining the nmra. I just joined. I'm embarrassed to say I've been in this hobby 47 years and just join the nmra. I was absolutely stunned and flabbergasted to find out how many guys live within 4 miles of my house. If I would not have joined the nmra I would have never known. Wow.
