Looking for 19th century railroad crew

[Carleroo]

Hi all,

I am a new member, working on Occre's (1:24 scale) Adler steam engine kit. I am looking for some suitable figures for the cab. I found a stock photo (attached) that shows just what I'm looking for. I have been Googling around but all I could find was a Preisser railway crew, but it wasn't really appropriate to the age (mid-19th century), and I've never bought any figures before, so I don't know about the quality. Does anyone have any ideas.

Thanks. These were just what I was looking for.

Welcome to the Forum, bye the way..

There have been a number of threads on the Occre model's.. A labour of love!

 

[Carleroo]

Thanks. Yes, I managed to track down one of the members who made the same model, and his suggestions and photos were very helpful.

Welcome Carleroo, there's quite a contingent of Canadians on here, do youknow if you're close to any of them?
By the way, pictures of your progress would be great!

 

[Carleroo]

Thanks for welcoming me to the group. I will certainly post photos of my progress. And, I'm sure there are some like-minded people nearby

I agree. I'd love to see your progress, and to meet up with a fellow Torontonian model builder would be a big deal for me, Carl. Cheers!

Just posted some of my progress on the Adler. It would be good to meet up - maybe post Covid! Cheers, Carl
