If you want to replace one gauge of railroad tracks with another what usually makes the most sense, ripping them out and replacing them with new rails or building another right beside it and then abandoning the old one or is there some other method of doing so I am not aware of? The assumption is that in most cases the tracks are used fairly heavily. Also, if this is important, the old tracks are pretty worn out while the new ones come straight from the factory.
