		With freedom there comes licence, and there is no greater monument to the stupidity of some railway engineers in the past than their teaming up with politicians to create not three but at least twenty-four different track gauges for regular commercial use.
		The list printed with this article has all the railway gauges (correctly measured) known to have been in commercial use, from 2140mm down to zero; gauges in brackets are no longer used anywhere Countries printed in bold face have adopted that gauge as one of their standards.
		At the turn of the century, the Nilagin mountain line in India and the Rhaetian Railways' famous Bernina line in Switzerland, both metre gauge, were built to exactly 100m minimum radius curves.

		The metre gauge Royal State Railways of Siam took early steps to dieselise their railways due to the serious inroads being made into the nation's lumber supplies by their fleet of wood burning steam locomotives.
		After stopping the train comprised of five bogie coaches (120 tons?) on a gradient of 1:37 with 100m radius curves a speed of 19mph was reached after a maximum of 35 seconds, recorded fuel consumption was 0.035lb per ton-mile.
		Trial runs on the Rhaetian Railway provided some interesting data, not only because of the steep grades (up to 1 in 25) combined with sharp curves but because this was a locomotive built for a tropical climate under test in winter conditions.

		Switzerland has many famous and spectacular railway lines, but it was hardly ever considered as a destination for steam.
		Apart the famous "Rhaetian Railways" and the federal SBB are many little known narrow gauge and secondary lines off the "beaten track" that run fine steam trains from time to time.
		Even though Antoine Mallet was a Swiss Engineer and a remarkable number of engines with his design were built by the end of the 19th century did the design not make a real breakthrough here, in comparison to countries like the USA, where huge articulated engines based on that design were a big success.

		The railways were made state property by the purchase of the larger railways from the companies owning them, the purchase being confirmed in 1898; in this way their administration belongs to the Confederation.
		Trade inspection is also largely regulated by federal law, and the Government has the right to introduce sickness and accident insurance; a law in reference to these was accepted by the nation in 1912.

		When Rail Europe invited me on their press trip to demonstrate how convenient it was to use the train for Alpine walking, it was as sweet as licking the bowl of my mother's cake mix.
		To me, it was already so obvious: when you want to experience the great Alpine outdoors on foot (or bicycle, or rental scooter available at Rhaetian Railways stations), go by train.
		When you rent an automobile, you drive up a twisting and congested mountain road (through nice scenery, but you have to watch the road) and find a place to park in a nearly full parking lot.
