Gauge Change Train


The Gauge Change Train is a version of Variable Gauge Axles fitted to a railway train in Japan. Its development started around 1994.

Overview

The main purpose of the Gauge Change Train is to allow interrunning between the stardard gauge Shinkansen network, and the narrow gauge provincial network.
