What rolling stock or engines should have been in Wooden Railway or any of the other toy lines but were never introduced?
Personally I wished they had made the green express coaches and the brakevan for Wooden Railway

Europeβs longest magrail test track to be constructed in Poland, with construction to begin this summer. The advantage of the technology, which uses the hyperloop concept, is the ability to integrate with the existing railway infrastructure without the need to make changes to rolling stock

Investing in European rolling stock market (railway). Will Alstom (ALO) and Siemens (SIE) outperform the market?
I was looking at the sector that was hit during the pandemic - transport. As railways are the subsector that is likely to profit the most from the green deal investment strategy by EU I looked into the two European frontrunners - Alstom that merged with Bombardier recently and Siemens. I was curious to hear if someone here is looking at the sector and what are your thoughts on the rolling stock market performance and especially when it comes to these two companies. Which one do you think could do better and how do they battle against the Chinese (CRRC) competition? Do you think Alstom's hybrid train system gives the company the edge, or is the future somewhere else - maglev perhaps?

Had to build a Wooden Railway set. Kinda just to feel like a kid again. Even though the vast majority of engines, rolling stock, track and destinations isn't what I had 8-10 years ago, it's still nice to feel like a child again

My last work on liveries, still in Switzerland, but on a small private railway I used to commute on. Two different epochs of the Lausanne-Echallens-Bercher railway, applied on the BR 442 Talent. Pictures of real rolling stock included for comparison. Feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Unusual maintenance train spotted at Kailbach, a rural railway station in Hessen, Germany. I don't think this is actually still used as it was parked up in a siding next to a preserved station building. Please let me know if you have any information about this particular type of rolling stock.

How compatible is 2 ft, 600mm (1 ft 11 5/8 in), and 1ft 11 1/2 in gauge railway rolling stock?
Sorry for the niche question, but I've just been wondering; a lot of narrow gauge railways around here (UK) are built to one of those three gauges, and they're close enough that I was thinking about compatibility. Can a 2ft locomotive safely run on 1ft 11.5in track, and vice-versa, or is half-an-inch of difference too much?

Some railways have four rails to allow narrow and standard gauge rolling stock to be used in the same trains, like here in France a few decades ago

The tracks embedded in concrete behind the ABC in Ultimo are actually functional railway sidings, connected to a railway junction south of Central. Prior to the Ultimo Road Bridge being condemned in 2005, the line was very occasionally used to bring rolling stock to the Powerhouse Museum.

[WP] You find your old box of Thomas Wooden Railway items to sell to charity the next day. You wake up to find they have gotten out, with the trains pulling the rolling stock out, with a few other trains you never had, your old Wooden Thomas, your first ever toy, says to you "we have toys to save"
They hand you a list of trains released from 1993 to 2003 and the addresses they are at
