Now the price is the only reason this isn't a 5-star review. These figures are multi-purpose for any setting in, on, or around trains and other railroad operations. You can trim them up to fit in a locomotive cab, mount them on the side of a locomotive or rolling stock, you can position them in a manner that shows how management works (1 guy working while the rest watch / supervise) they can even be placed within buildings as workers in the shop. I like adding them to locomotives and have several yard motors with a pair on there for a switching crew. As I said, the price is a tough pill to swallow, but they add an extra layer of realism to the layout.

You can never have enough yard crew members running around!
