Apparently, Menards sells O scale train stuff.  The buildings look like a nice, cheap start:

You can pretty much buy friggin' anything at Menard's, it seems. They have enough of a grocery section to live on if you had to, including a dairy case.  :facepalm:

They are the Walmart of the home improvement.. (not in business ethics.. but prices variety and selection.)

They regularly have 11% off store wide rebates..

I shop there almost weekly.. ~Ian

If any one is in the apple valley Mn area stop in at the lumber desk and ask for Dick. Ive worked there for some time now. One of the warehouse guys bought some of the buildings and they were pretty nice. And yes we have almost every thing to build anything

Sounds like Me Nards could be an Irish strip joint. Can Downtown Deco make it happen?

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

For $20 it might be worth it to grab one of those PRR Merchandise Service boxcars for the 'round-the-Christmas-Tree Lionel set.

That's debatable.  I've heard some pretty scary stories.

One being the grocery section.  It was put in because they don't give employees enough of a lunch break to leave the building. 

I used to shop there all the time, now I pass.
