Plan 698 - Fernridge GaragePDF Plan package: $8.95The Fernridge Garage was part of a lone commercial area a few miles south of Langley, British Columbia. The business started as a rural Post Office in the early 1920's and shortly after, added a small grocery store. It is not clear when the garage was added, but at one time the tiny structure housed a tire store as well. Whether it was a sign of economic times, or development favoring another part of town, one by one, operations ceased. At the time of researching the project the structures were still standing, but in need of repair. Garden Scale 1:24 and RC Scale 1:10 are available at www.ScaleModelBuildings.com.

Plan 1598 - Gas StationPDF Plan package: $9.95The Golden Age of Automobiles is sometimes considered to include the 1920's, when assembly lines made automobiles more affordable to the masses, to the 1950's, where style, power, and prestige were paramount. Production of passenger cars slowed down during World War II, but came back with a vengeance in the late 1940's and 1950's. Part of the American Dream was to have a new car in the driveway of your new home. To keep all these vehicles running service stations like this one sprang up across the continent. In addition to two grades of gasoline and a variety of parts and auto supplies, you could often count on a mechanic being available to handle any repair job that came up. This HO scale version was finished with Tremclad Texture finish on styrene walls. Roofing is 320 grit sandpaper. Gas pump plans and choice of signs are included.

Plan 2498 - Kingsway MotorsPDF Plan package: $9.95Many towns have a "five-corners" or other unusual intersection where roads converge at odd angles. This is often the case where old wagon trails became paved roads. Rather than re-survey to something more geometrically sound, buildings were designed to fit these abnormal intersections. This was the case with the intersection of Kingsway and Prince Edward Streets in Vancouver. The odd shaped building was home to a few car dealerships over the years until it was torn down in favor of a new hotel in the 1960's. Download plans in either N, HO, OO, or O Scale

Plan 1646 - International HotelPDF Plan package: $9.95In the early 1860's gold was discovered along Wild Horse Creek near the Kootenay River. An entrepreneur named John Galbraith started a ferry service to carry the gold seekers and their horses across the river to the new settlement. This settlement came to be known as Galbraith's Ferry, which later became Fort Steele. As the easy gold disappeared, so did the miners. From a peak of about 5000 prospectors in the mid 1860's, the population dwindled to less than a dozen, but with the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1885, the area once again began to grow. Today's Fort Steele is a heritage site, with almost 100 historic buildings, including the International Hotel. This is the N scale version using materials from Northeastern Scale Lumber Co.

Plan 1824 - the El Dorado MotelPDF Plan package: $11.95 (includes office & motel units)The word “Motel” is an abbreviation of Motor and Hotel. As North America's highway systems began to grow in the 1920's, so did people's need and means to travel. The independence provided by the automobile meant that people could choose their routes of long distance travel rather than follow those dictated by railways and bus lines. To accommodate this travel, a new type of lodging was established. Unlike hotels, which were typically located in city centers, motels were often located along popular travelled roads and highways. The El Dorado Motel was typical of one of the many that sprang up along major highways in Canada and the U.S. (Sign pattern included) This HO Scale model was constructed using 64 lb. cardstock and balsa for the sign and columns.

With the invention of the telegraph newspapers were able to report events from accross the country, and readership was popular but over the years they have suffered various setbacks, including censorship, competiton from radio and television, and now the Internet. In time, like the steam locomotive, small hometown newspaper offices may become a thing of the past. The HO scale example was done using the included cardstock version.

Plan 1140 - Sperling StorePDF Plan package: $9.95The Sperling Store was typical of many rural stores throughout North America. In these little country stores you could find anything from gasoline, oils and kerosene to groceries and gumboots. Often, there was a corner dedicated to a post office or even a Sears catalog order office. This one served the rural citizens from the early 1900's to the 1960's when a new highway bisected the main route to the store, leading to it's closure. Printable Gas signs included.

Plan 2460 - Main StreetPDF Plan package: $16.95 (plans for complete commercial block as shown)Nearly every major town across North America and Europe had undergone a phase of Art Deco architecture. Entering the twentieth century, even many otherwise conservative architects found themselves moving beyond mere function and practicality, with their designs reflecting the artistic styles of the period. Ingram Jewellers, on the right, sat directly across the street from the Great Northern Railway tracks for over thirty years, before finally closing in the 1980's. Similar buildings can still be seen on just about any Main Street in the country. (Signs included) This model is constructed as one complete unit of four businesses - Drug Store, Law Office, Department Store, Jewellers.

Plan 3256 - Strip MallPDF Plan package: $15.95Strip Malls began to make their appearance in the early 1970’s. They were usually located on the outskirts of towns and cities, partly for accessibility by car and partly because commercially zoned properties tended to be cheaper than those in downtown cores. The fact that they are usually single story structures did not warrant the premium price of downtown locations. This is the HO Scale version using foam core finished with Rustoleum textured spray paint. The Cinema can be constructed separately.

The school underwent several additions and renovations over the years, including raising the building for a basement, adding two classrooms in 1922, and the construction of a separate annex in the 1960's. Although the building was still standing at the time of this publication, it's future was uncertain. This is the HO scale included cardstock version with balsa staircases and railings.

Plan 556 - Fort Steele Stage Lines OfficePDF Plan package: $7.95Fort Steele was one of several gold rush towns in the early history of British Columbia. The stage coach office was one of many businesses serving roughly 1000 residents. Beginning around 1899 Fort Steele began to suffer the fate of other gold rush towns, as the Canadian Pacific Railway route favored the nearby town of Cranbrook. In 1961 Fort Steele was declared an historic park. The Friends of Fort Steele Society have worked hard to preserve and restore over 60 buildings, to create a fascinating tourist destination, which can include a ride on an early 1900's steam train.

Plan 635 - Molly's DinerPDF Plan package: $9.95Although they resembled railroad dining cars, the classic art deco American diners were mainly purpose-built, pre-fabricated units complete with interior equipment and furnishings. Companies such as O'Mahony, Kullman, Fodero and others built single and modular units designed to be delivered to location by truck or railroad and set up either temporarily or permanently. The glory days of these diners was roughly between the 1920's and 1940's. Several of these are still in existence and have been restored to their former beauty, even serving the same type of meals that shaped their popularity in the first place. The scratchbuilt version uses balsa, styrene, and aluminum foil. The cardstock version is a hybrid version using a wood or styrene roof. *Electric sander would be useful, but not required.

Plan 695 - Sister's CafePDF Plan package: $7.95Over the years many of Fort Langley's classic buildings, apart from the original CN station, have either been replaced or renovated beyond recognition. Although before my time, the Sister's Cafe was once a testament to not only the culinary skills, but the ability of my two aunties to get along well enough to share the same kitchen. Few 'old-timers' would recognize the present day town as it endeavors to re-create a historic identity. The Sister's cafe has long since closed and the building is unrecognizable today, but I can imagine that it was once a center of social activity as well as delicious meals.

Plan 715 - Tastee-Treat Drive-InPDF Plan package: $9.95Long before “drive-through” fast food restaurants let you grab a quick meal to eat on the run, “drive-in” restaurants allowed you to take your time, relax, and enjoy yourself in the comfort of your car. The exact date and location of the first drive-in is debatable, but it was during the 1950's when this style of dining became increasingly popular. Of course, the popularity of the drive-in restaurant was not just from the unique style of dining. Local drive-ins were the 50's, 60's and 70's social gathering center for teens to meet friends or show off their hot cars. This is the HO scale cardstock model. Plan covers drive-in, canopy and sign.

Plan 1515 - The Stardust Drive-InPDF Plan package: $18.95First appearing in the early 1930's, drive-in theatres rapidly became a popular source of entertainment for the entire family. Snack bars provided the refreshments, and the family car provided the intimate setting. As with indoor theatres, popularity began to decline as color televisions, and later, home theatre systems became more common. Whether the Stardust survives or not remains to be seen, but it will continue to exist in the memories of its patrons and in miniature scale through the efforts of scale modelers.

Plan 2169 - Paramount TheatrePDF Plan package: $9.95The Paramount Theatre in Chilliwack BC was sixty-one years old when it closed it's doors for the last time. By November of 2010 the once ultra modern 600 seat theatre had ultimately yielded to the competition of a new multiplex theatre, and the proliferation of new home-entertainment centers that could not have been imagined back in 1949. Although the stories that were told were those from Hollywood Block-busters, the ones that live on are of first dates, family outings, and other treasured personal memories. This model depicts the theatre prior to a renovation in the late 1970's. This N Scale model of the 1950's version was constructed with balsa and sprayed with Trem-Clad Texture finish.

Plan 2076 - Kaslo City HallPDF Plan package: $9.95Like many historic BC towns, Kaslo BC owes it's beginnings to logging and mining. Various railways serviced the Kootenay Lake region, including the Columbia and Kootenay Railway, Nelson and Fort Sheppard Railway, and the Kaslo and Slocan Railway, which was originally operated by the Great Northern Railway, and later by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The Kaslo City Hall is the oldest functioning city hall on the mainland of British Columbia, and second only to the Victoria City Hall on Vancouver Island. It was constructed in 1898, to house the municipal council chambers and administrative offices, the provincial court, the fire and police departments, and jail, and was declared a National Historic Site in 1984.

Model Railroad buildings
are available in finished form from a variety of manufacturers. You can find completed structures ready to place on your layout, or model building kits, ready for you to assemble. Either form will provide a valuable
embellishment to your model railroad layout, but if you are passionate about your hobby, why not go all the way and create your own model railroad buildings? Our comprehensive scale plans allow you to use your choice of
materials to create inexpensive, yet realistic alternatives to model railroad building kits at a fraction of the cost. Try one of our scale plans and see why thousands of model railroad hobbyists choose to scratch build
their model buildings in favor of kit form structures or pre-assembled models.
