    Looks like it’s built to model railroading “O” scale.

      To spend almost $140 on a Menards model for your model railroad, you either want some sort of very accurate representation of somewhere that has a Menards or you are way too big a fan of Menards.

        There is at least one Menards with a railroad siding, or at least was 20 years ago when I lived in the area. (oakdale mn) I undrestand some deliveries came via rail to that store and them by truck to the rest of
