to take into consideration with this is that my mental person-to-train size
ratio is based on UK prototypes and of course a Dutch loco is bigger)
Gauge 2 (the size up from gauge 1) standard gauge has a track width of 64mm so
perhaps that is the way to go!
And the model? great!!

BTW David Eaton has a minifig (and technic fig) scale tool at

useful.

I had thought that technic figures were about 1:20 scale, similar to the 18-wide trains at Legoland, but as with minifigures, you can get away with a range of scales and just assume average people are a bit taller or shorter!
