Building kits help establish the communities and industries your railroad serves. Selecting different structure types creates towns with a purpose instead of simply filling empty space.
G scale includes several different proportions, so structure sizes may vary by manufacturer. Before purchasing, compare the building's dimensions with your locomotives, rolling stock, figures, and vehicles to create a balanced and realistic appearance.
