When model railroaders run their equipment on rails that are 7.5" apart they usually build their equipment to 1.5" scale. Since real standard guage railroad track is 56.5" or 48-1/2" and the equipment is scaled so that 7.5" equals 56.5" then the scale is closer to 1.6" scale. It is called 1.6" scale and is actually 1.592" scale. 1" then in 1.6" scale is .13274"

How do you draw a scale that is 16ft as in 16 yd?

To draw a scale of 16 feet, first, determine the scale ratio you want to use. For example, if you're using a scale of 1 inch to 1 foot, you would draw a line 16 inches long to represent the 16 feet. If using a different scale, adjust the length accordingly by multiplying the actual size by the scale factor. Always label your drawing to indicate the scale used for clarity.
