Better industry graphics not appearing?

On the wiki and in other's screenshots, I often see very nice looking and detailed vanilla industries. Here's the wiki's depiction of a steel mill, for reference:

Looks great. However, whenever I load up a game, even with no GRFs enabled whatsoever, the industries I see in game look closer to this:

I have the openGFX base graphics installed, and it's selected on the options menu. I also attempted reinstalling it, but this didn't have an effect at all. For what it's worth, when I activate newGRFs that replace some of the vanilla industries with similar but slightly altered versions, I see the higher quality versions instead - but only when the industry is actually replaced by the newGRF. I'm certain I'm doing something wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. Any advice or recommendations?

The first graphic you posted is from somebody who created screenshots using the original Transport Tycoon graphics. This is only available to individuals who legally purchased a copy of the game when it was being published.

The second graphic you posted is from OpenGFX.
