I found a set of great terrain kits while visiting a new model train shop. Unfortunately, I left the package at home, so I don't have the name handy. I'll bring it tomorrow (I feel stoopid  )
They have kits for all sorts of piping, girders for free-from bridge building, and at least 2 kits for doing streets/sidewalks (cobblestone and concrete).
I promptly bought one of the piping kits and turned all the little bottles I've been saving into ruined tank farms. 
Sorry for the tease.

Cool.
It reminds me, there's a model shop I found in the town I now live in. I only found it about a week ago, but haven't yet got round to popping in. I'll have to, as FW is a little too pricey to make a whole board with.

The Walthers Cornerstone Series is the company and group of models. They have HO and N scale buildings.
They also have O-scale, just in case someone's interested.
http://www.walthers.com/
The accessory kits are at the end of the building/facility model descriptions. For example, the Piping Kit I got is listed at the end of the Refinery model.
Incidentally, I also found a 1:650 Eiffel Tower model at that shop. I think it would be too big for Epic, but I might get it for a 40K board centerpiece. What an awesome piece of wrecked terrain that would make.

As I found in one of the other topics on the board this site,
Irregular Minatures
has some decent 6mm stuff, including a nice stone bridge model , built in sections with the option of putting ruined sections in it. ?Prices are okay, maybe a little steep, but that is probably just me cuz I have to ship to the US.
my 2cents

There is a US distributor for Irregular, so you don't have to pay overseas shipping. I think their shipping bands top out at about $15, and over $100 orders is free. It makes them very economical.

Hi!
Anyone have actual pictures of sci-fi irregular minis? I know Maksim had some, but are there any more? From anyone?

Primarch,
I have photos of many of the Irregular sci-fi pieces.
Which ones are you looking for photos of?
I can look through the photos on my hard drive in the Irregular folder!
Irregular isn't very good about getting photos of their product out there for the public.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Hi!
Any ones you got I'll take a look at. I really can't stand why these companies cant get more pictures of their lines out for public inspection. One reason I have never bought Irregular or similar minis is due to lack of pictures. I refuse to buy blindly.
I appreciate the help.

Hi Primarch,
Did you ever find the Irregular 6mm sci-fi mini photos you wanted?
I have a source if you did not.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
