Correct terminology edit

English please - the third illustration does not show a "wagon", it shows a "passenger car" or a "passenger coach". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.48.148.78 (talk) 20:05, 4 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Done. Feel free to correct by yourself :-) --79.49.8.26 (talk) 23:24, 9 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Break-of-gauge edit

How is the break-of-gauge managed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.76.125.254 (talk) 05:19, 24 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The break-of-gauge occurs in the central station of Brest, in Belarus. It is managed with a complex operation: coaches are lifted by a "hoist machinery" (i dunno the technical word, sorry), then bogies, sliding on the rail, are replaced, and the coaches lowered and placed upon the larger bogies. The videos linked below, in Brest station, may show well the operation:
I hope the answer was sufficiently clear. Regards :-) --Dэя-Бøяg 17:58, 19 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
