[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 610132, member: 10543"] You're right. Colorado had some dual standard gauge/3 Foot gauge lines (C&S and D&RGW) and the East Broad Top in PA had the same. The EBT actually swapped trucks on cars interchanged with the PRR and their yard had a lot of dual gauge track. They had a sling crane that lifted each car end and trucks would be rolled out. I can only imagine the scene, with brake rigging and air connections having to be somehow dealt with. [/QUOTE]
