Though I would start this one with something new. A ready built, pre-lighted Hobby Shop building from Menards. Yes the big home improvement store is getting into model trains. They've been offering O scale for sometime but now started into HO. Flashing signs, full lighted store interior and figures. You all know I like to build my own but I couldn't resist this.

Are the people, dog, and trash cans part of it or did you add your own touch?

That is a really nice building (being mass produced). Maybe they're gonna put out a line of
nice buildings and not the China cheapo stuff.

Everything came with it fully assembled. Just had to add the power pack. It's laser cut and nicely done. Four buildings now in HO and a bunch in O plus rail cars in O. Not cheap, but not cheaply made either.

Digging into my picture files, I have this Hamburger joint I bought recently, needs some clean-up, being a greasy spoon though, maybe I don't need to  Anyway, always a necessity in an automobile environment.
