Pacific National "X class" locomotive X39, wearing the green 'Freight Australia' livery and running long end leading enters Dynon with a broad gauge freight train consisting of loaded containers.
Standard gauge is 4' 8 1/2" (common in the USA and England), broad gauge is 5' 3". Victoria still has an extensive broad gauge network. Every now and then someone tries to send a broad gauge train down the standard gague tracks (or vice versa) leading to some embarrasing derailments.

How does broad gauge differ from standard gauge?
