A LITTLE OFF THE SIDES.

Menards’ O gauge Halls of Handsome tells a great story with a tight 7½" x 6" footprint. It packs in color, character, texture, and memory-evoking details in a very small area. The building is a heavier ceramic-like material mounted on a sturdy base. There are five people (plus Jack) on the sidewalk. One sits on a bench while a tyke enjoys a coin-op rocket ride. A simulated interior adds even more interest. Priced at $44.99; visit your local Menards store or Menards.com/trains. Requires a 4.5-volt power supply sold separately (nos. 2794061/4361, 4062/4362, or 4050).
