[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] While I'm sure the Western world would relish having Russia retreat from any Ukrainian territory they have occupied since '14 (Crimea), that's not how this war will end. It will end at the table. Now if Ukraine is able to keep at least one maritime port, such as Odessa which I don't think has fallen, a gauge conversion from Russia's wide gauge to Standard of substantial parts of her rail system would not be necessary. However, postwar, should Ukraine choose to "lean West" joining the EU (NATO would be "off the table"), part of building her economic ties would be a compatible rail system beyond the existing transloading trackage in Poland. Who knows, might there one day be a Vienna-Kiev Rail Jet - and a Night Jet? [/QB][/QUOTE]
