Business cars and my coaches only. Considering to do my diner and sleeper.

These are the opinions of an under 35 , from the east end of, and modeling, the same section of the Wheeling and Lake Erie railway. As well as a freelanced road (Austinville and Dynamite City railroad).
No passengers in any of my passenger cars.
Why bother? For the most part, you cannot see passengers on the prototype anyway.

Not liking amputations, add me to the 1:100 Chinese imported people camp - although right now I am putting them in buses, as my tourist train (up next) is not ready yet.Looks like I got the same set as Mel did (100pcs 1:100 HO TT Painted Model Train Passenger set), although that's not too surprising as there's only a few sets of Seated passengers offererd on Amazon as opposed to the standing passengers. Amusing thing is the seller, offering free shipping, originally quoted a date in mid July (OK by me, I'm in no rush for these) - I got the figures in late May.
Every passenger car that I have finished with an interior has passengers. The loss of IHC with their line of HW and LW interior kits has put a krimp in my plans for some cars. My goal are all passenger cars with lighted interiors and passengers.
An IHC interior in an Athearn HW car, still in progress
An IHC LW coach with interior kitbashed to match MEC prototype
Same car outside
MEC 244 LW Coach with Lighting and passengers (IHC)
BM 14 Section Sleeper (Walthers) and Pullman 12-1 Sleeper (Rivarossi) - the 12-1 does not have an interior yet

I run N-scale, that being said, my passenger cars are full of double amputees.

Who has figures (people) inside their passenger trains? I am going to start populating my passenger cars with some riders and I would love to see some examples. My Metrolink commuter trains are going to have very light ridership, while my steam excursion is going to be nearly sold out. Please show me some pictures of passengers. Also pictures of custom interiors would be cool. K thx
