It is in fact standard gauge. From what I have heard the ABT is outdated and when the cog was looking for newer equipment no one would build anything with that style cog so they had to change systems. I believe they will be converting the larger Swiss units they currently have as well as getting newer equipment, there just wasn't enough in the budget to convert the older not used equipment. I believe they also plan on trying to convert their steam engine and that historic coach down the road. They are completely relaying all of the track so every piece of equipment had to be removed from property so they can tear out all the old rail and the management at the cog thankfully decided to make available items that wouldn't be converted Vs scrapping them.
