I live by the Jersey Shore in West Long Branch. Can you direct me to a group in my area, if you know any? Thanks

Hi, I've never been involved in the train world but I do want to put a train set in my backyard that is good for all year weather and I am interested in finding out who I can meet with that can guide me and eventually set this up for me since it looks like it will be a custom job. I'm fascinated with trains but never had the time to sit down and get to understand it. Now I do. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Sammy
