Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Modern Concrete Warehouse Background Building Kit - 933-4071

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Modern Concrete Warehouse Background Building Kit - 933-4071 makes it possible to add a large modern industry to an HO scale layout without using valuable foreground space. Designed specifically as a background structure, the kit features narrow 1-3/4" (4.4cm) end walls that create a natural transition between three-dimensional scenery and a layout backdrop. Its authentic tip-up style concrete construction makes it well suited for modern warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and industrial scenes. Each finished building measures 16-5/8 x 1-3/4 x 4-1/2" (42.2 x 4.4 x 11.4cm). Explore the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale industries and structures.

The shallow-depth design of 933-4071 is especially useful for shelf layouts, modules, dioramas, and other locations where space is limited. Positioned against a backdrop, the structure creates the appearance of a much larger warehouse extending beyond the modeled scene. Rail and truck dock wall options also provide flexibility when adapting the building to different industrial operations.

A rail spur can run directly alongside the building for freight-car loading, while the truck-dock configuration can suggest a larger warehouse or distribution center extending beyond the edge of the modeled area. Multiple structures can also be incorporated into a larger industrial backdrop.
