I am located in Middletown, and would like to check out some layouts if there are any around.
Thanks, Ron

Shoreline Garden Railroad Club, all over Delmarva. Smyrna to Ocean Pines to Easton to Federalsberg. We are in the club listings on this site, as well as lsol.com, as well as in the Garden Railways club index.

Check out our web site at www.trainweb.org/shoreline

and www.trainweb.org/shoreline/slgrc.html

There is contact information, and lots of pictures. I hope you have a fast internet connection.

We would love to see you at a meeting.

I believe there are a couple of clubs in your area. Paul and Bob, who are frequent visitors to the board belong to the Shore Line club - http://www.paulbottino.com/slgrc.html and the NorDel group? who had a display at ECLSTS the past few years.

Nor Del is kinda multi scale, but they have a spin off G club, see if you can contact Keith Heck who is a mover and shaker in that group. Also the Mason-Dixon Club which has a lot of folk from Newark and Cecil County, I think that’s the club with Pete Eggink! You can also check with Karen Darling (she also has volunteer connection with Wilm & Western) who graciously lists the open house tours and individual open houses on her site. (There is a link to her site from the SLGRC site).

While I echo Pauls welcome, we are more in the Lewes area and Southward; thus about an hour and 20 minute drive for you, and those would be much closer.

I would also say to check with Ken Donahoe right up on the Pa line (State line runs through the property) as he is a long term G scaler who is most willing and happy to share his knowledge. Ken is a member of several clubs.
