My husband passed away last year and has quite an extensive layout.  Where and how do I start to find a new home for it?  Are there places that would take it as a donation?

I was in Osh Kosh Wisconsin a block away from the tracks right by where it crossed the old swing bridge (now replaced with a lift bridge) and had a train sitting there for hours because the bridge broke down.

I am looking for people in the Lomabrd Illinois area (could be companies hobbyshops volunteers etc.) that could help sponsor and build a layout for a model railroad club that may begin next school year I have not gone to the principal about it but last year he said it could be possible if I can find a teacher to do it. If you can help please put it in the comments or PM thanks.

Although one of my over-arching modeling goals is to replicate some of the operational constraints of the prototype (like manually operated switchstands) I am going to compromise in the near term in order to achieve some “plywood pacific” operations before the end of this school year.
