Greetings Railroader, Go to Barnes & Nobel Book Store and serch for books by the Arthurs A.G Smith and Edmund V. Gillon Jr. There are 10 or 12 books available for HO buildings in the era you are modeling. Some of these books are no longer in print but are available fron their old and used book department. They are reasonable priced and and the books are complete. Titles to look for by Smith are: Cut and assemble Main Street. There are nine buildings for late 1800 era. Cut and assemble An Early American Seaport. There are eleven Wood buildings of the 1800 era. Title to look for by Gillon include: Old sturbridge Village Meeting house. A Western Frontier Town with Ten full color buildings Victorian Gothis House in full color. Victorian house four full color buildings. These are the ones I bought for around five dollars per book. This is cheep for a lot of buildings. Very easy to assemble and easy to kitbash and weather. There are aeveral other books by the arthurs. In the Scenery Tips and Techniques Magazine from Model Railroader there is an article on page 82 by Al Kalbfleisch, that gives you the techniques for weathering the buildings and it also hase pictures fo some of the buildings. Hope this helped. Happy Railroading[8D] Neal
