Gerry, I did not know that either! Excellent information :)
This list is a real storehouse of knowledge. I recall the bad old days when one had to sift through issue after issue of lots of model railroad magazines to get one small tidbit of information. Now, a guy (or gal) can find out just about anything S or train related in a few minutes or at most a few hours. And usually with options! Amazing...

If you are planning to build a station that uses normal brick-on-brick construction, as opposed to some design variation such as brick-on-brick with alternating brick-on-end, then "yes" the plastic sheets do exist. Plastruct has styrene brick sheet that they list as HO/1:100. Not! Buy some, and get your calipers out. You will find the bricks are almost perfectly 1:64. See my article in the "S Gaugian" from about two years-ago on the Stone Avenue Station construction.

If none are available in S Scale are there any HO or O sheets that are close to the right dimensions?
