·Hello, I have spent this past winter assembling a number of PIKO town buildings. I have the bank, evening post, and steakhouse completed, and hope to have purchased and finished the pharmacy, barber shop and theatre by April when the layout gets up and running for summer. I will likely buy the remaining ones over summer to make a nice little "tourist" town like Truckee, CA, or Leadville, CO along my Amtrak mainline.
I've also noticed that PIKO makes a line of smaller, cheaper town buildings as well.
While I've never been fond of the western look of the general store, fire station, school, etc., I have noticed when visiting their website that in 2008 PIKO released three new buildings in this line that I do like - music store, book store, and coffee house.
I would also be interested in the LGB store as well.
My question is this. Do these buildings look OK when mixed together despite their difference in size and era? Has anyone used both together before? If so, can you post some photos so I can get a feel for how they look mixed before I buy the smaller, cheaper ones.
Thanks!
Ed
