(...) I think it's very close to "O" gauge, but I'm sure someone out there will have a more exact answer. JohnG, GMLTC (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I keep meaning to check it out, but I think you're right that it's close but not the same as O-Guage. Best thing to do for the modelers is to tell them this, and to also provide the measurement between the insides of the rails. (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Gauge on straight track appears to be 1.494" This makes it around .25" bigger than O, and .25 smaller than Gauge 1. Right up the middle...what a Lego answer... James (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) So we could call it "1/2 gauge". :-) /Eric McC/ (24 years ago, 9-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) But, you see...there is already a 1/2" scale. In fact, there are 2 widely modeled 1/2" scale's (LGB, and 1/2" scale/2.5" gauge) So, it would confuse the issue. I think Lego gauge is best, since it does fit all (offical) lego trains ever made. (...) (24 years ago, 9-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
