I used Walthers Modulars for a Cold Storage which turned out well, fortunatly there is a large box of left overs that has sufficient parts in number to build a large warehouse to go with the Cold Storage. I only need a few foundation peices from the store and some paint.I find the Modulars somewhat expensive because they only package 4 or so of a badly needed item. Take Blank walls for example. I needed roughly 42 of these which meant I needed to buy 11 seperate blisters at 8.00 each to get the required number of blank walls to finish my design.I already have several other nice complete kits based on modulars that I recieved on sale pricing.I know I wont be considering any more of the walthers modular after the warehouse is built. Walthers needs to take each major peice like Blank Wall Sections and package them 16 to a card. It might support future projects using this system. Otherwise I carefully buy pre-designed kits that I think (Sterling Dairy for example) is good for the railroad.I probably will consider DPM Kits such as the 15 building town kit in the future. They do provide learning kits that are pretty small but teaches you how to build thier system. The challenge for me is a large flat surface of some precision without warps or sags is necessary and there is not an item here in Arkansas with a straight angle.. except maybe a carpenter's square.
