A piece of styrene cut to size just might solve the problem!
Some of them have a lintel, while others have an arched top - these include all of them on the second and fifth floors (the latter have an inset lintel, with an arched top on the individual bays) and the vertical rows at the corners of the trackside wall, plus, of course, the large arch on the 5th floor and those round windows on the 6th.
I agree with biL, though: for the lintels and sills, a thin strip of styrene cemented to the face of the wall will suffice. Note that the sills in the recessed bays appear to extend the full width of the bay, as do the lintels.
