Hi Jack,
The company has varying levels of dificulty with their kits but most should be within reach of your average modeller.
I'd like to find a good supplier of seated passengers as well. The ones I used came from a set, can't remember the company, but they had a set A and a set B. One of the sets had 5 seated passengers.
I have a number of figures that I bought from E-Bay and came from China. They are not very good quality but as they will be inside my carriages they should be ok as you won't be able to see much anyway.
I know you can buy ready painted sets from the likes of Priesler and Bachman but they are rather expensive for the number you get.
Have you tried Fleetline? They do white metal figures. I bought some coalmen a while ago and they paint up rather well. I see they also do 6 seated passengers for £1.70, which is not too bad. I may order some myself.
Alex
