Can I get trains to appear twice as big

Hi all. Any one know how to get trains to appear twice as big.
I'm trying to create an activity on the MSTS Ffestinog route.

On the bit of main line at Blaenau Ffestinog the Arriva 143 appears no higher then the fence posts and sits between the track rails.
The double sized Class148 (found at Mineffordd) runs on this bit of main line OK.

So is it possible to get the Arriva Class143 to look as big as the Northern rail Class 148.

Hi Eric
If the shape of the model is too small you can enlarge it, with Shape File Manager.
If ts too low on the track you can raise it using SFM.

Cheers
Jon

Hi Jon. Thanks for the speedy reply. I have just downloaded Shape File Manager from steam4me.
Just have to learn how to use it now.

It's about time I did more then just running activities and fixing my msts.
