there is track width (measured from mid rail to mid rail) and track gauge (measured from inside rail to inside rail. As that is the most important size of track, that is normally the distances referenced to. normal distance for track gauge is 1435 mm

Is miles used to measure distance in space?

No. Short distances (the width of a planet) are measured in kilometers. Distances from one place to another in our solar system are measured in Astronomical Units (AU), one AU being 93 million miles. Longer distances outside our solar system are popularly measured in light years, Alpha Centauri is 4.2 light years away, for example, but note I said "popularly". Astronomers use the term "parsecs" when speaking of interstellar distances (one parsec is 3.26 light years).


Do astronomical units describe distance outside the solar system?

Astronomical units (AU) are primarily used to measure distances within our solar system, specifically the distance from Earth to the Sun. Outside the solar system, distances are typically measured in light years or parsecs, depending on the scale.
