Mostly, when modellers depict abandoned buildings they’re that way because of battle damage. However, there are corners of every town with buildings that have just been vacated, fair subjects for the railway layouts and non-military dioramas. So these pictures of a Russian ghost town, abandoned after the collapse of the Soviet Union, might be useful reference material for the effects of 20 years abandonment.
