Can anyone advise on size compatibility between the Piko Taurus loco and LGB German rolling stock such as cat number 30310? I've seen a Taurus and it's pretty darn big but does it match LGB standard gauge stock given the sometimes rubber ruler approach?

I've got several Taurus locos and BR218s. I can't get to much of my rolling stock ATM to take photos. PIKO tend to use a scale of around 1/26 so I am told. Here is a short video of one of my 218s with a rake of LGB mainline DB coaches to give you some idea. Personally I don't think they will look out of place.

Thank you kindly Mike - very helpful.
