message: Please, do not write such nonsense, no way will the US and Canada convert their railroads to broad gauge.
Question to people more experienced:  Would it be reasonable to just undo all the recent changes by 121.x.x.x?  Otherwise I find it extremely hard to figure out how to undo some of the changes.  Or can somebody do this?  Or am I wrong with my concerns about this broad gauge issue??

replies: text: Again, this issue is not important.  They will not convert, so for Wikipedia we stick with what they do now and the new future:  1435 mm standard gauge is given for sure.--Bk1 168 (talk) 13:18, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: This issue is totally off-topic.  We should stop discussing it.  The gauge used on most railroads in North America is 1435 mm, no change of gauge can be paid for nor is it planned nor is it going to happen in the next 30 years.  Speculations about "it would be cool if..." etc. do not belong into Wikipedia.  PERIOD.--Bk1 168 (talk) 20:16, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: It is very possible that the United States and Canada or one of the two countries will have additional high speed trains in the next 30 years.  Real plans exist, they are not followed with so much enthusiasm that we can be sure about the next 10 years, but even that is not beyond possibility.  But conversion of a whole country to another gauge, where the current gauge is absolutely useful for highspeed trains (Spain uses broad gauge for traditional railroad lines and 1435 mm for high speed trains) is so unlikely that it is of no interest at all for Wikipedia.--Bk1 168 (talk) 20:05, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

text: Keep it to yourself, totally irrelevant and off-topic here.  Or can you name us ANY serious source that mentions plans for conversion of the railroad system in North America to broad gauge??--Bk1 168 (talk) 20:05, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

message: The article says that Puerto Madero is the southern end of the contiguous North American railway network, but the link goes to an article about a neighbourhood in Buenos Aires. There does not seem to be an article about a Puerto Madero in Mexico. From :File:Ferromex-map.png it looks like Tapachula might be the southernmost point of Mexico's railways. Is Puerto Madero part of Tapachula, or is "Puerto Madero" completely wrong? Indefatigable (talk) 14:32, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
