What scale is this considered to be? Are there other clubs with the same scale? What is the width of the track rails?

Our track gauge is 7 1/2" between the rails. So any train that has it's wheels set to this gauge will run on other tracks (clubs). I personally have run my engines on 12 different tracks between Canada and Oregon. The largest model railroad know as Train Mountain has over 30 miles of this gauge track. The smallest gauge that is practical to give rides on is about 4 3/4" between the rails. A good website to check out is "discover live steam.com". Also ask for a tour of our facility. We can answer all of your questions. Ken Olsen The scale of our trains varies. From 1 1/2" to 3" to the foot. However, what ever the scale, the trucks must fit between our rails. The 1 1/2" is referred to as the closest gauge to the full size trains. The 3" would be what is referred to as a narrow gauge scale. Full size trains were gauged to run on 4' 8 1/2" measurement between the rails. Many logging trains were full size engines but ran on 3' track thus referred to as narrow gauge engines.

I guess what I want to know is, can you track your train to another club and the track be the same width. An inch or two bigger or smaller will make a difference.

Not sure the scale but your can fit 4-6 adults per car and there are about 4 cars besides the engine.

@Terry I do not know what you mean by scale. This train is miniature train you sit on top. Track is probably 12 inches. Less or more.
