Types of Train Figures
Since many train sets are made from wood, including Brio and Thomas sets, you can find a lot of figures that are made from wood as well. This is great for young children, as wood is durable and nonlike and take on a variety of positions, such as waving. There are also figures made from pewter, such as those by Lionel train sets.
When choosing figures for your train sets, make sure you have a well rounded base of people so that your child will enjoy playing for hours. You can purchase people packs for your child, which give you several different people all in one set, or you can let your child choose a favorite character figurine to add to his or her train set. Here are some great ideas for train set figures:

Choosing Train Set Figures
*Material: They're often made of plastic or wood. Look for train figures by Plan Toys which use safe and non-toxic wood for their products. Although pewter sets are strong and durable, these figurines are not intended for small kids and instead are used for collectible train sets.
*Age: With all the collectors out there, it can be hard to distinguish which train figures are for kids and which aren't. Make sure to read the manufacturer's recommendations as to what age the people sets are for, as those that are for collectors may contain small parts.
*Variety: When choosing train figures for your child's set, try one that includes a variety of characters, such as the PlayKraft People Set that has everything, including a dog, robber and policeman. Or, choose brightly colored Fisher Price Little People Train Replacement Figures.
