"Vitrine" means window (almost always a shop front), though I think that in
this case it means display cabinet.
I looked it up in an online dictionary and got:
> 1. Devanture vitrée d'un magasin; glace derrière laquelle un commerçant >expose des marchandises à la vue des passants. || Par méton. Ce qui est >exposé en vitrine; étalage.
> 2. Meuble vitré où sont exposés des objets de collection.
Number 2 means display cabinet :)

Particularly liked the micro SW creations, the block of yellow flats. Lawrence's station with the curved roof is great (...) (24 years ago, 30-Apr-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)
