Can anyone tell me which 1/50th employees Ian from Cranes Etc TV uses for his dioramas? Does DHS stock them?

I wouldn't hold your breath

Anything is possible if you don't know what you are talking about.

That particular set of figures has been discontinued for quite some time now, but there have been rumors that they will produce them again. I'd keep my eye eBay if you want a set anytime in the foreseeable future.

Ok thanks guys. After a few more model purchases I'll look harder to find a set of hard working workers!

They're nice but for a less than half the price you can grab the Bachman figures for $10-$12 and I think are more realistic (construction wise wearing orange) than the Prieser ones.

Does Bachman makes them in 1:50 scale?

I do have those you're talking about, but in 1:87. I did'nt know they do Lionel scale too. Do they? Think

As far as I know the Bachmann figures are 1:48th scale.

I agree Tom, I also wish someone would just make construction workers with Hi-Vis green t-shirts, and jackets, no safety vests, raincoats,etc. Its like they try to model these figures off of what a steroypical construction worker would wear that I have yet to see them wear in real life.
