LEGO Shop

Couldn't resist making this particular shop for my display. It will have upper floors as well. Not sure what's happening next door to it. I have made this model slightly wider than the standard 16 studs wide. I hope to put items in the windows to make it look more realistic.

Whtite and Yellow.

Two shops for my display. These now have upper storeys (you can just about see in the previous post). I am going to replace the 1 x 8 light grey arch with a white one on the finished model.
I decided to make the depth of these models a little shallower as this will save on bricks + the backs of the buildings will not be seen. I think they will be a Chip Shop and a Clothes Shop - not sure yet.

Train Station

This is the basement level of the Train Station for my layout. I have yet to build the two upper levels and the entrance. Some of the details are - news paper stand, croisant stand, toilets, lift. I'm particularly pleased to have used a spiral staircase from a Harry Potter set.

The station on the display leads onto a field that will have a pop concert display on it.

In the background you can see the upper floors of the white and yellow shops.

First Picture

These unfortunate picture of Cafe Corner is from Pepaquin's Gallery.

I seem to remember seeing this picture before any of the LEGO sites had pictures of Cafe Corner (i.e. I saw this before I'd even heard of Cafe Corner - and I search the sites every day). Its from the Geneva Library display with the Northern Illinois Lego Train Club.

Its great to see a Cafe Corner Style Model from Gizmocom. Gizmocom (Darren) and myself run together www.bigbricks.blogspot.com - This blog celebrates LEGO models and minifigs that have been scaled up (or supersized). Please take a look - we would love to read your comments about these amazing models.

Thanks for your messages Darren - Sorry for the delay.

I like the way the stone work is constructed in the second picture. Very nice.
