Chrissaf Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Loco crew figures must be one of the most common figure types available. Here is just a small selection. I would think any of the online model railway retailers will have variations of those below or similar for sale..ebay selectionPeco Products 5082 Peco Loco Crew & Guard x3Bachmann Branchline 36-407 1950s Train Crew x 6Bachmann Branchline 36-047 Locomotive staff x 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teedoubleudee Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I like the Dapol unpainted ones. Look fine when painted in your chosen colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fazy Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Try Dartcastings. They do a few crew sets in different poses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissaf Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Oops!! So they are. In my defence, it doesn't say so on the product page where my Google search took me to, but it is mentioned on the main site 'Home Page'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulleidboy Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 You could try Falcon Figures - masterpiecefalconfigures@yahoo.co.uk - they actually sell crew designed for specific locos - both Hornby and Bachmann. They are made of pewter and come either painted or plain. £10 for a painted crew. I believe he only attends shows in the south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
