Model railfans or gricers

[60103]

I have a spot on my layout that cries out for a few railfans by the tracks (see the thread on spline roadbed).
Can anyone suggest a set of commercial figures that would do? I found a fellow with a camera as a single unit, but I would like a few more. Might even have a campsite.
LHS did have a set of ex-railfans in black and white stripes.

I find Preiser and Merten to be the best sources but still can't make every pose I'd like. What I do then is buy the unpainted multi packs, then carefully cut and reposition arms, legs and heads. I then apply a homemade putty to fill and smooth out the forms. The putty is simply the sprues that the figures came on dissolved in Testor's Liquid Styrene Cement 'til it is the consistancy of caulking. After 24 hours, you're ready to carve it to final shape and paint.

Shaygetz,
Thanks for the quick how-to with figures there!
