MAINSTREET USA

The term “Main Street” has had a variety of meanings over the years. This was a much-desired location for a business, primarily due to a high rate of customer traffic. Our Mainstreet USA series is an adventure in turning back the calendar to the days of grandfather's youth. From a coffee shop to a row of classic retail buildings, this piece of Americana introduce you to the art of modeling a miniature world by exploring the structures, scenery, roads, landscaping and railroads that are found in the small towns across America that form the backbone of this great country.
