The straight and narrow train tracks near the town of Yale are fringed with yellow wildflowers and lush green leaved trees.
There have been many changes to the train track systems throughout North America and the world. Before the "world" was fully connected, nearly every state and country had their own standards for train track gauge. However, now the standard gauge for train tracks is 4 feet, 8.5 inches or 1435mm.
Only thirty percent of the tracks in the world have not been standardised such as some historic railways which are on either narrow or broad gauge, however they are very local and interchanging is not necessary. Some countries such as New Zealand have adopted different gauges because of the mountainous landscape the railway passes through.
