I was wondering the other night what the approximate scale is for standard gauge trains are. At 1/26 an average today's house of 40' X30' will measure about 18 1/2" X 14". It's no wonder the accessories and buildings are toy like. Need a lot of pasture to stay in scale. Anyone done a 'high rail' standard gauge layout? Trying to make the scenery realistic and to scale with the trains? I'm sure some G scalers with a lot of room and passion have done it. Like a huge mining or logging complex.
