RAILROAD GAUGE PROBLEM.
Germans Shift Car Bodies to Wider
Axles.

Correspondence o, the Associated Prcss.
BERLIN. March l-As German forces
press on into Russia. the problem of
adjusting German standard gauge rail-
road coaches to the wider Russian
tracks arises. Everywhere else in
Europe the rails are 1885 millimeters
apart. but on the Russian roads they
arc 1.524 millineters wide.
Fer some time certain cars and trains
plying between Germany and Russia
have been eQnipped with interchange
able aSles. which at the border can be
shifted in a few minutes. but the ma
jority of the German rolling stock is
not so fitted, especially the passenger
cars.
The shift from standard to broad
gauge Is accomplished by shunting cars
travelling Russia-ward from the stand
ard track into a sort Of turn table. out
of which lead the broadgauge rails.
In this table or pit the German car is
lacked up by means of four auxiliary
cars. one at each corner. the standard
gauge wheels are removed and in their
places are attached sets OF wheels
fitted to the broad-gauge tracks. The
auxiliary cars. operating under their
own power, then propel the German
coaches along until the Russian tracks
are reached.
