My point was that I can't think of a railway network which was started
from new much after 1914 which went for sub-standard gauge.


Bulgaria built a fair bit of 760mm gauge in the south of the country
after WWI.

Thailand converted (some?) lines from standard to metre, to match its
neighbours.

Other than the Shinkansen, have there been many totally new networks
built since 1914?
