Technical and economic study of railway linkages: the effect of gauge adjustable wheel sets and bogie changes on the traffic between railways of different gauges

The growing demand for transport for accelerating the inter-African trade and the need to foster the economic and social co-operation between the countries of the region will be greatly facilitated if the present railway systems are inter-connected. The presented study tried to describe different possibilities of handling rail way traffic between connected rail way systems with different gauges by changing bogies on the railway joints and by gauge adjustable wheel sets.
