I need help with understanding scales

Pictcelt; Using 25-28mm figures means that the closest model railroad scale for these figures is S scale. which is 64:1. The figures then scale out at 5 to 6 feet tall. Using O scale means the figures are about 4 feet tall. <br />The bad news is that S scale is even more difficult to find reasonably priced equipment for. <br />Old tinplate S equipment, ( American Flyer) is a collectors' item, but 'old time western' equipment in AF would be almost impossible to find. Actual S scale trains are expensive, and most hobby shops do not carry this size. <br />There's a very large availability of 64:1 British farm, military and related plastic toys, and also a huge North American diecast metal farm equipment selection.Sorry for the bad news. regards / Mike
