That would mean that the LEGO trains would need to be......10 WIDE!!!{:^D
Woo-Hoo, a new width to model!!! (That's figuring that 1 stud = 1 foot)

Putting 10 wide on my to-do list,

I noticed the new JackStone sets in a toy shop and thought that the vehicle
cabs could be used on trains.  They are six studs wide and would give a nice
curved front to a train.  They are available in red and yellow.  They look
as if they can be turned though 90 degrees to give different height/lengths.

Has anyone got one and tried them out?

They are in sets 4609 fire engine (red), 4606 Aqua-Res-Q (yellow) and 4607
Res-Q copter & tansporter.

I don't have a Jack Stone figure, but aren't they two studs wide? If they are
two studs wide and 1 stud equals 1 foot, then that is one WIDE butt.
