I don't have a layout, only about 100' of fastrack which makes for a nice Christmas Layout, which I just pulled up today. My dad collected mostly Ho when he was younger, and he has about 200 cars stashed in the garage, each with it's box. I haven't spent any money on models in the past 2 years, it's all gone towards papers and such, including a letter from Mr. McKeen himself, but now it's all going towards the project.
And about the groups, I visited the PSRM on November 9th, and I've personally talked with Mrs. Hyatt and Mr. Pennick, who has told me he's been interested in the McKeen Cars for quite a while. A friend of mine, Mr. Tomeraasen is a member of the Balboa Park model train group, so I have ties all over.

please consider joining one or more of the clubs listed below.
feel free to show up and check us out.
when you turn 18 if you join the san digeo 3 railers you can run what you own on our layout. lots of fun for low cost.
when you turn 18 if you join the all gauge toy train association when we put up the modular layout you can run what you own. lots of fun for even lower cost but less time as the modular layout only gets put up a few times a year.
in the mean time you are welcome to be my guest at the san digeo 3-railers any Tuesday except free Tuesday. I or someone will share a line with you.
