I recently purchased the Rail Crew box set, and yesterday I was looking at them trying to figure out how to base them. The Rail Workers and Kang are easy enough -- I have some HO scale track laying around I can cut up -- and the Emberling won't be that difficult, either.

But Mei Feng... What is she supposed to be jumping over? Was it a crate? A buffer stop? The lip of a platform?

The problem isn't that I feel like I need to use the extra wooden bits -- the problem is I WANT to use the wooden bits, I just don't know what they're supposed to be so I can accurately integrate them into the base.

So far, the closest thing I've seen is from Fred Raider, and it just looks like she's jumping over a bunch of trash.

So... what do you think she's jumping over?

Splintered wood, most likely a rail beam. train tracks, or a wooden wall...

Yeah, random wooden wreckage. Could be a fence or even the remains of a wooden wagon.
