people to populate older MTH cars

I always preferred the "Beep People", but I don't think they are available any longer. Thus, I have been using the Golden Gate Depot "Little People". Once they are glued into the seat of a passenger car, who can tell what they look like anyway?

Funny, I just decided to do that tonight.  I have a "Bantam" Daylight set.  It really runs terrific.  Have a bunch of the Beep People, so going to start tomorrow.  Made arrangements with the local Dr., unfortunately I think some amputations are scheduled.  (May internally decorate and re-identify one of the stores on the layout as a shoe store.)

BTW, opening up the cars???  From what I figured out remove 2 screws from the bottom of the chassis, then twist each end of the cars to pop the roof off!  Sounds scarey to me.

Hot Water...over 38,400 BEEPeople will be arriving in late December.

Many already have their immigration sponsors lined up.

Thanks.

I use the Beep People too.  However Don is right, amputations are sometimes needed.  Mine are in Railking Madison's.  Most of the feet have been removed.  Unless it's a vista dome, your visitors will never know it. 

Thanks for the information. I will start the adoption papers. Hope they all have green cards.

Another option is the RailKing unpainted "people set".  These are the same figures used in the recent populated MTH passenger cars. They are close to 1/64th scale but are the best fit for MTH passenger cars and similar.

I am in the process of painting the RailKing set. Some ready to be "clothed" as shown. More photos coming.

Blue,

   If you have a military train and need men, I like the K-line military people best of all.  They come completely finished and ready to use.

IMO, the BEEP People are far too big for most passenger cars.  I have several sets of them, and I've never found a passenger car they fit into.

I look for the S-scale people, they seem to be the closest fit for most passenger cars.  I have a bunch of the MTH ones, but as noted, you have to paint them, and I haven't gotten around to that yet.

lots of people here

I had been looking at these. Has anybody had luck ordering these. I had some concern ordering direct from China. Last time I did something like that it took for ever to get the product and then it was not as advertised. At least this time it would be little plastic people and one could pay through paypal for CC protection.

Walter,

I like your reply about the BEEPeople. I will have to see about buying some in January when my budget will allow for stuff like that.

RMT Trains are are great product. I have a few freight cars and one RDC car.

Can you tell us the exact dimensions of these seated people?  The GGD folks are one of the few that I haven't tried.
