Answer: an American school bus measures 10.7 m (length / span), which is 1.2× as big as the reference, a Triceratops at 9 m.
A full-size American school bus is commonly around 10.7 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to compress an American school bus when it sits beside a Triceratops — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: the RMS Titanic measures 269 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a container ship at 300 m.
Titanic was about 269 metres long — shorter than many modern container ships.
Common miss: players tend to inflate the RMS Titanic when it sits beside a container ship — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a New York subway car measures 18.3 m (length / span), which is about 1.2× smaller than the reference, a Brachiosaurus at 22 m.
A common New York subway car is about 60 feet long.
Common miss: players tend to inflate a New York subway car when it sits beside a Brachiosaurus — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a farm tractor measures 5 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, a family sedan at 4.6 m.
Five metres of tractor is mostly wheelbase; the rear tyres alone can stand taller than an adult.
Common miss: players tend to compress a farm tractor when it sits beside a family sedan — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: a high-speed train measures 200 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, the Roman Colosseum at 189 m.
A complete high-speed trainset can be around 200 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to compress a high-speed train when it sits beside the Roman Colosseum — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
