Instead of building every sidewalk and curb from scratch, modelers can use the molded components to create consistent street edges and pedestrian walkways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe straight sidewalk sections are useful along commercial streets, residential blocks, and industrial roads. They can be arranged beside building fronts to create continuous pedestrian areas or used individually where only a short sidewalk is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe curved corner sections help connect sidewalks at intersections. These components provide the rounded transitions commonly found where city blocks meet, improving the appearance of intersections and helping roadways fit naturally into the surrounding scenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSeparate add-on curbs allow additional flexibility when creating street edges. Modelers can use these components to establish the relationship between the roadway surface and adjacent sidewalks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe light gray molded finish provides a practical starting point for concrete scenery.

Straight sections can run along a row of stores, while curved corner sections can complete the ends of a city block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a traditional downtown scene, arrange sidewalks in front of older brick storefronts and position fire hydrants near intersections.

These details help establish the appearance of a planned community rather than a collection of individual houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe straight sidewalk sections can be positioned along residential blocks to connect neighboring properties. Curved corner sections help complete intersections where two neighborhood streets meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe included driveway entrances are especially useful for homes with garages or off-street parking. These sections provide a transition between the roadway and the property entrance while maintaining the appearance of a continuous sidewalk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFire hydrants can be placed along residential streets, while manhole covers and storm sewer grates add municipal utility details.

Straight sections can run alongside the station entrance, while corner pieces help connect the station area with nearby streets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a larger passenger terminal, sidewalks can help define the roadway used by automobiles, buses, and other vehicles serving the station. Driveway entrances can represent access to parking or service areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a small-town depot, a short sidewalk connecting the station with the main street can make the scene appear more complete.
