My BOTW is probably the most "kiddish" model railroad structure kit ever made, and it's in H0 gauge.

Bimbo, a popular Mexican pastry company, a Mexican version of Hostess, etc.
Modeled here at the El Paso Model Train Club by Fred Sunderman. He picked
up the delivery trucks as promotional items being given away at the airport
one day.

It's from an H0 scale wood kit from the mid 1990's. The picture of it on the original packaging (a plastic bag that it came in) showed the trains running in some outdoor environment. It is a fairly interesting piece.
