i have a 1.29 lay out are 1.25 automobiles to far of scale or

i.am new to 1.29 scale[?]

Mathematically, there’s a 15% difference in scale between the two. Many people use 1:24 and 1:25 autos on their 1:29 railroads. Many buildings are 1:24, so the cars actually scale very well to the buildings–which works out nicely since the cars are far more often parked next to a building than they are sitting next to the train.

Bottom line, if it looks good to you, then run with it. If it doesn’t, then you’re fighting an uphill fight looking for appropriately scaled autos.
