So, I ordered these low scale figurines, come out of China, sort of dipped in a garish
pink, green, or orange, and they sat on my shelf for a while. I find that cutting off
their tiny legs, they fit nicely into these OO coaches. It took about 70 or so to fill
my seating arrangements, and they look pretty OK. The lurid colors don't scream out
as I feared they might, and look like so much confetti, but give some visual contrast
that makes them visible. I like. Now, one supposes, we could really push things to the limit
and install miniature LED's into the table lamps...and perhaps I could independently control the
on/off functions of the table lamps with DCC, with a computer interface, but this worked
out nicely. Only another fifteen coaches to go. Nail clippers work well for the amputations.

I do. Does anyone need 1/100 legs?

Stick them in a few odd places around your layout... may make people look twice.
