Menards American Power and Light Variation? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Engineer BobOGR Forum Member

I ordered the American Power and Light Building from Menards when I heard there were only a few left. I received it today but it seems a little different than others I have seen. The lights (other than the sign) are dim but I don't mind that so much. But I notice there are no lights under the sign on the walk way like I see on some others. Once again, not big deal But the bigger issue for me is there is no button on the side to change the sign light pattern. So the sign is lit but no animation. Were there two different versions of this building?

I just got mine and it does not have that feature either. Only the hobby shop has it out of the buildings I have. Mine had a loose piece of 1/8 x 1/8 square stop in the package. One about 6 or so inches long and the other about 1 inch long ..

I'm pretty sure it sold out once then came back available later. Doesn't really mean there different but maybe. confused
