SUW 2000 is a type of variable gauge system that allows a train to travel across a railway break-of-gauge. The SUW 2000 design is manufactured by Polish company ZNTK Poznań for Polish State Railways (PKP). It is used at two border stations, enabling trains to Lithuania and Ukraine to proceed without the need for lengthy bogie exchange. Similar, but incompatible, systems are produced by Talgo (Talgo-RD) and Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF-BRAVA). The SUW 2000 is interoperable only with Rafil Type V systems. , a single SUW 2000 bogie cost the equivalent of $42,000. == Routes == The following interchange and break-of-gauge locations were fitted with a SUW 2000-compatible track gauge changing facility, allowing trains crossing those routes to be fitted for gauge-changing, rather than bogie-replacement: ;Installed - * Mockava, Lithuania * Šeštokai〔ec.europa.eu/ten/transport/coordinators/doc/2006_07_pp27_en.pdf〕 * Brest, Belarus〔(Experience of SUW 2000 ) - see map on page 19〕 * Mostiska, Ukraine〔 The SUW 2000 method of variable gauge system was designed by Ryszard Suwalski. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SUW 2000」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
