Just checking to see if there may be a round robin scale operator's group in VA Beach area.

Thank you, Tom

I think there is an active group in the Williamsburg area, not all that far from VB. There is one spectacular layout in the fords colony of williamsburg.

Ford's Colony Williamsburg has a model RR club with members in scales from Z to G. While we do not have a "club railroad", about 20% of the members have home layouts that in pre-Covid days several would be open for a weekend date each year. Two of us have good sized O scale 2 rail layouts. Tom would be a welcome guest - but drive time can be an issue with Norfolk tunnel traffic. My favored route from the beach is through Suffolk on the south side of the James River and then over to Jamestown/Williamsburg on the VDOT free ferry.

Tom, our friend Jim Sycks is in VB. He may also have leads for you.
