Hi,
I'd like to see some pics if you get there in F.
If you use 1.6" to the foot scale, 4.75" gauge is quite close to 36" gauge and 7.5" gauge is quite close to 56.5"
I have a 2.5" scale D&RGW 3000 series box car and in 2.5" scale, standard gauge is just under 12" gauge - small amusement park trains.
