Need K-line advice
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, November 4, 2004 6:55 PM
Has anyone tried the set of seated kline passengers in their passenger cars.
If so how do they fit and where is a good source to buy these at discount.

I ordered some from Train Express, unfortunately they haven't come in yet because K-Line is slow in delivering the B&O Exp boxcar I also ordered and asked that everything ship at the same time. They seemed to have the best price from all the surfing I did. [^]

Here are some pics of the K-line people in my MTH passenger cars. Most of them fit OK, but a few had to have there feet removed. I pick them up at our local train shop. You should also be able to get them from K-Line web site. If you are a KCC member, you will receive a 10% discount.

How did you get the car body off the frame. I imagine it is easy, but just in case any suggestions, and also what did you use to attach them to the seat. Thanks guy for the advice also.

The MTH cars have 4 screws on the bottom and with a twist the top comes off. Sometimes it takes more of a twist on some than others. A little help from a small screw drivers helps.

To attach the people to the seats, I used glue dots from a craft store. This is like silicon glue, but only ΒΌ dia. and 1/16 thick.

Hope this helps
