For the past 6 months, I have avoided this newsgroup ( lugnet.build.arch ) ,
on the basis that building things with arches was a bit restrictive, and
anyway, I don't have enough arches to do anything interesting.
But now, I see that "arch" is short for "architecture". Ooops! I hope
nobody finds out my mistake!
I now hope to build some "proper" Lego buidlings - not the squat buildings
of my youth, but the more realistic Minifig scale buildings that I have
seen. For example, John Neal's feature-laden stuff mordern buildings <

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=2519 >
Elsewhere, I liked the interesting <

However, I really don't have the bricks to complete something as large as
that. Which I why I am looking to find some pictures of the Dutch Lego
buildings (perhaps as part of a rail layout) I once saw.
They appealed because they were tall and narrow, so I only would need a few
of each colour arch or window to complete the building. Trouble is, I can't
find them! Can anyone point me in the right direction?
If I can't find those pictures, I may well be forced to use My Own
Imagination . . . no bad thing, I know, but I find other people's creations
rather inspirational!
