Assorted HO Plasticville® U.S.A. Buildings

Since 1947, hobbyists and collectors have made Plasticville® U.S.A. products their structures of choice, adding character and dimension to their HO layouts. Many buildings and accessories have been added to the Plasticville® line throughout its history, and many are still produced from their original molds. As a fun challenge to collectors (you can even join the Plasticville Collectors Association), you can collect hundreds of product, color, and packaging variations that have occurred over the years. Whether you're new in town or an established civic leader, your version of Plasticville® U.S.A. is limited only by your imagination!
