on kyllä vanha rautatieasema... joskus muistan haaparannassa kyllä käyneeni mutta siitä on pitkä aika

[granskare]

so the carriages are not transferred from 'narrow' bogies to 'wide' bogies? Just each uses it's own size in the railyards on both sides of the border? so goods then are offloaded in each town to be carried onwards, I suppose :)
