I'm contemplating 7/8" scale, once more. I had the thoughts of setting up some 7/8 scale trains a few years ago, but I may actually delve into it on a trial basis. So figures are something i cannot build, unlike the trains themselves. I wonder if there are any suppliers of figures for this extra large scale ?

There are figures in the U.K and I believe 3d printed ones available as well if you have the gear or know someone who has. But have you looked at 1” dolls house figures? I believe that many use these and there are some very good resin ones available, I have used similar ones at 1/2 inch scale on my garden railway the figures being produced in both scales.

Oh another option, as the military model world tend to use actual height as the measurement perhaps that conversion may help over the pond?

The Short Staff figures come with separate heads, so they are interchangeable.

Wonderful painting, Paul
Indeed so, he is pretty much always painting when I visit and all while trains running as well. Man of many talents Casey is.
