the v train is not ho. It is completely different. Unless it specifically states it is HO scale, then no it is not a HO train. I do use the buildings for my Ho scale train though and they work fine for the train.

Q: Do these buildings have interior lighting?

No the kits do not come with interior or lights. That being said I use the lighting kits from Woodland Scenic and build the interior out. You also have to install the floors and ceilings, here I use Evergreen materials

Q: What are the actual dimensions? The "product dimensions" are listed as 11.8x7.9x1.5 inches and the "product description" describes it as 10x5 inches.

The difference is the base with and without the side walk. I have found that the side walks of the different merchant row sets (1-5) are different (don’t match). If you want to line the kits up I would strongly suggest getting sidewalk kits that match to replace what comes with the kit. Other than that they are nice models.

Q: Would these buildings work with 1/64 scale cars?

Maybe. HO scale is 1/87 which is somewhat close to 1/64. However, the cars will look bigger next to the buildings. I like using 1/64 scale in my layout, so it's a matter of personal taste. Some modelers will feel the discrepancy in scale will look too unrealistic. One way I circumvent this is by using 1/64 vehicles that are small in real life. Their dimensions fit better with 1/87. Also, be aware that most 1/64 scale cars are not true 1/64 scale. Most manufacturers make their cars all about the same size so they conform to the packaging. For example, a Matchbox fire engine will be about the same size as a regular passenger vehicle.
