      But only 4mm so basically compatible. Seems like a missed opportunity, another centimeter or two and Finland could have locked the Russians out.

        If you look at the legend, it’s not the Finns changed their standard, but the soviets/ russians did so in 1970.
        Yet, this is depicted as green vs. dark petrol. The red / dark purple is between Brazil (1000 mm) and Columbia (~ 900 mm).
