Hi, just recently got into live steam 1:20.3. Moved up from Hon30. Hoping to make a couple of friends that have track that could walk me thru the basics of live steam, maintenance, running etc. I have a loco arriving in a few days I’m very excited about. I’m local to the central coast, 5 cities, SLO county. Thank you for the consideration.
Kind regards,
JC

JC,
You may want to reach out to the Bay area garden railway: Bay Area Garden Railway Society - In Your Local Area

I’m sure their live steam group could point you in the right direction.

I believe that SLO is for San Luis Obispo. Contact the San Luis Central Coast Railroad museum cccgrs.org, they did have an active club associated with the museum.
