OUCH! yeah that would be bad with 2 very young kids.
Yup, ages 5 and 7. They are used to it though. They like the Chisinau crossing because a crane lifts the train up while they switch out the wheels underneath. It's very cool.

Why do they have to change out the wheels?

Different gauge tracks. One country has narrower tracks than the other... I think

CIS (Russian) world and EU worlds have different rail gauges. When crossing from the former USSR into the EU you have to have different width wheels for the different gauge tracks. CIS is narrow gauge, EU is wide.
