Yard and shop facilities can give a model railroad an operational purpose beyond moving trains between destinations. Engine houses and shops establish locations where locomotives can be stored or represented undergoing maintenance, while fueling, sanding, coal, and water facilities can help develop servicing scenes appropriate to the individual structures being modeled. Turntables and roundhouses can become focal points within engine terminals, while yard offices, towers, cranes, and supporting buildings add additional railroad infrastructure around the tracks.

Build an HO Scale Engine Terminal or Railroad Yard

The structures in this collection can be combined in different ways depending on the size and purpose of the modeled facility.
