Here is mine, which coincidentally looks a lot like the Presyterian Church I attend. I believe it is the O Scale Plasticville Church model:
If you have such a structure on your layout, you can post a photo of it here. Arnold

Arnold, I have the very same Plasticville church you have. I do have a photograph of a photograph of the church where we were married in 1984, which was razed a year or two later to build our present sanctuary. It disappointed us the old building was razed, but truth be told, it was small and had some structural issues. Building a scratchbuilt version of it ison the list of things to do in retirement. As can be seen, it should be a fairly easy build.
Frank, as always the whole scene is very well portrayed. I see you have staged people and vehicles differently indicating a different time of day or week! I am going to guess the pastor has to take a brief pause in the sermon when a train goes by.
An enjoyable reply, Mark, Thank you.
P.S. The vehicles change, from time to time, because when we had children as guests to the layout, we would let them select a vehicle they really liked and take it with them from the front of the church .The little people were always coming and going.

Absolutely beautiful, Roger!! Did you scratch build it yourself? It is a must for all of us Christians!

There use to be a hobby shop in Colorado, Mizell's. They had a guy that did these and other structures out of rosin. Thanks for asking.
The detail on some of your church models is extraordinary.

You’re welcome
I will have to again post a photo of my scratched adobe chapel, with a walled in cemetery with sheep nibbling among the stones, and a horsedrawn hearse with coffin waiting to be unloaded. I should have bid on a Padre and Indians for it.
Well bought this off the used table at local toy train shop. It appears to-be HO+ size but is massive looking. My intent was to raise on a 3/4-1-inch foundation adding slightly higher step raisers to meet existing steps. Plus add a small adjacent cemetery surrounded by decorative metal fencing with gate.
