Another thing worth noting about the post-war world is how Eastern Europe's railroad network was affected.
After the war, many nations, most notably Slovakia and Poland, had locomotive fleets consiting almost completely of machines sent to them by the occupying forces. The Germans sent many of the 'Kriegslok' 2-10-0s there. The Hungarians cloned their famous 4-8-0s for use in Slovakia especially. The USSR also sent many standard gauge versions of their locomotive designs to Poland like the FD Class 2-10-2s and IS Class 2-8-4s. Lastly, British and American war locomotives came in droves to Slovakia and Poland when the USSR finally fell.
