Walthers Cornerstone Residential Buildings help modelers create neighborhoods, suburban areas, and residential streets that bring the communities surrounding a model railroad to life. Houses and other residential structures can fill the spaces beyond the tracks while providing a natural transition between railroad property, downtown districts, and other parts of a layout.
Train Supply brings these structures together as part of the complete Walthers Cornerstone line. You can also browse HO Scale Walthers Cornerstone and N Scale Walthers Cornerstone to find model railroad structures for your specific scale.
Build Neighborhoods Around Your Railroad
Residential buildings can transform open areas of a layout into recognizable communities. Individual houses can be used as stand-alone scenes, while multiple structures can be arranged along streets to create larger neighborhoods. Varying the placement of buildings and their relationship to roads, railroad tracks, and nearby businesses can help give each part of the community its own identity.
Residential areas work naturally alongside Walthers Cornerstone Commercial & City Buildings. Combining homes with nearby businesses can create a gradual transition from quieter neighborhoods into main streets, downtown districts, and more developed urban scenes.
Connect Residential Areas with Railroad Towns
Many model railroad communities are built around the relationship between the town and the tracks. Walthers Cornerstone Stations & Depots can provide a focal point between residential neighborhoods and railroad property, helping establish a more complete town or city scene.
Residential buildings can also provide visual separation between railroad facilities and industrial districts. Placing neighborhoods beyond trackside and commercial areas can help create depth while showing how different parts of the modeled community fit together.
Roads, bridges, utility structures, and smaller accessories can further connect residential scenes with the rest of the layout. These elements help turn individual houses into developed streets and neighborhoods while providing additional detail between larger structures.
