O sized figures removed from Pullman...alongside a G sized couple...both with 'crazy eye' syndrome.

There's no way that they look like 'children'

Malcolm, how do those two figures compare to the seats in the coach. If I remember correctly the Pullmans are scaled at 1/24. I put some of their LGB seated people in mine and they looked huge. I went for 1/24 and 1/25 Chinese imports as well as some of the ones in plastic kits. I'm still looking to see if I can find an appropriate trio for you.

The single seats in the Pullman coach are 'narrow bottom gauge'..about 16mm wide with armrests that interfere with some passengers.
The double seats can take a single 'fat bottom gauge' figure.

Don't paint the eyes is the answer. I use a pencil to lightly give an impression. White and black paint always gives goggle eyes

I've used a red ball point pen for lips...and a dot of a black pen for eyes.

I'm also putting passengers into an RhB Restaurant car, the seats are just a bit wider than the Pullmans allowing a wider choice of diner figure.
While I was at it, I noticed that a couple of the table top lamps weren't working. I changed a couple of the dead lamps for new ones..and noticed a difference in brightness, so decided to swap all the 10 tabletop lamps for new ones ( massoth 8311110 5V ). I ran out...and my usual suppliers didn't have any.
So a trip to an internet auction site, and I bought 2 packs at a reasonable price from ' Railroads_and_more' in Germany, ordered 4th June, arrived on 9th June. Now my diners can see what they're eating....nothing..as the tables are bare. Maybe some plates with food need making....
