Gauge Change Train

The Gauge Change Train (GCT), known in Japan as the Free Gauge Train (FGT), is a Japanese project started in 1994 to help develop a high-speed train with variable gauge axles that was able to inter-run between 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in) and 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) tracks. The project has been on hiatus since 2017.
JR Kyushu originally was to used technology adopted by the Gauge Change Trains for the Nagasaki Shinkansen when it opens in 2022, but they have since abandoned plans to use the Gauge Change Trains for these services as of June 2017.
