I usually get mine at YORK.  But what is a good site to get people in O scale?

I think RMT is making a new line of Beep people !!  Then there is Artista you can get from Scenic Express. Also, there are people from Model Power !!  hey're usually at some hobby shops & train shows .

Thanks, John

Model Power makes a set of standing people that's inexpensive. But you have to paint them.

Hey, Laz, I get some of my figures from www.hobbybunker.com

It's mainly military figures, but they post pictures of everything they sell.  54mm is about the right size for O.

Has anyone successfully ordered from oakridge?  I placed an order 6 weeks ago (by phone) and have heard nothing.  I call weekly.  Twice it was "items on back order" two other times it was "we are shipping it in a few days" but alas nothing has arrived.

I have really been unimpressed with their service / responsiveness.  Their web ecommerce  service left a lot to be desired as well, which is why I phoned the order in.  My one and only experience leads me to believe the are really not ready for Internet commerce.  I doubt I will be ordering from them again.
