There is a dark brown column in 5804, blue column in 5825, dark pink in 5805, plus a number of white columns in the large palace 5808. Earlier Belville had them in (...)

I actually meant the round pillars in the middle of the front wall (either side of the main entrance(?) and balcony). (...)

I always like to see pictures of structures in the plastic, as opposed to ray-traced. (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.trains.org)
