Correct terminology
editEnglish 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)
- Done. Feel free to correct by yourself :-) --79.49.8.26 (talk) 23:24, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Break-of-gauge
editHow is the break-of-gauge managed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.76.125.254 (talk) 05:19, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
- 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:
- Regauging in Brest: Vienna-Moscow train on YouTube
- Regauging in Brest: bogie change-1 on YouTube
- Regauging in Brest: bogie change-2 on YouTube
- Regauging in Brest: bogie change-3 on YouTube
- I hope the answer was sufficiently clear. Regards :-) --Dэя-Бøяg 17:58, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
