I thought I would post this for those who might be interested, I ran across these on flea bay where they were listed as 1/43; they are actually 1/48, but they are O-scale so about what we are used to and Pretty close.
Great thing is they look really good and a really inexpensive and would make it quick and easy to add some drama to your circuit.

The pit garage is just what I've been searching for, they all look pretty sharp. Thanks, good find!

Yes, I thought so as well! Word of warning though, as the name would suggest these are not really detailed I am guessing the detail is printed on some sort of paper or board (Maybe laminated) and then die-cut into panels or pieces that are then joined together. Not a big deal really, especially for the price, but if you were expecting surface texture type detail you might be disappointed!?

I think they can really lend some realism to a circuit where the owner isn't sure he can build something like it. Additionally, there is detailing in the pictures they use that really pumps up the effect they have. I think they'd work great!

I have the pit garage and the Grandstand. You can see part of the grandstand in some of my car photos
You need a sharp Exacto knife as they have to be cut out of the cardstack they are printed on. They give quick inexpensive buildings that look good in photos.
