Hi Ray,
If you are modeling 3/4" scale on 3.5" track then that would be standard gauge, right? My 1" scale, standard gauge cars are about 10" wide. If you scale that to 3/4" scale it measures out to 7.5" in actual size. So that might make an acceptable width for you. Length of my cars is pretty short because I am building industrial, logging type of stuff. I think my riding car is like 30" long which would be only 22.5" for you. It may be hard for you to squeeze yourself on a car that is only 7.5" wide x 22.5" long though. At GGLS everybody uses 4.75" gauge riding cars behind their 3.5" gauge locomotives. It's a club rule.
Regards,
Eric
