Solution 1. 4.896 meters. Sample reasoning: The actual height is 48 times the scaled height. . 4,896 mm is 4.896 m.

102 mm is 0.102 m. The actual train is 48 times 0.102 m. .

2. No. Sample explanation: The modern train needs tracks that are 60 inches apart, because 1 1/4 x 48 =60 . The old tracks are only 54 inches, so they are not wide enough.
