A new SUW 2000 device used for automatic changing track gauge in rail stock was tested under operational conditions and evaluated from technical point of view. The tests were carried out according to the UIC Leaflet 510-4 to achieve 100000-kilometer run with at least 100 gauge changeover operations. Up to now, 15000-kilometer run with 20 gauge changeover operations was achieved for freight cars and the full range for the passenger cars. The preliminary review of the SUW 2000 system showed its good reliability and let to improve the comfort of travelling and to save the operational time.
