Swedish term

spårviddsväxlare

Swedish to English Tech/Engineering Transport / Transportation / Shipping
Svenska och finska banverken har använt spårviddsväxlare på försök.

I understand exactly what it does - changes the track gauge to accomodate trains of different gauges - but need to know the correct technical term.

Thank you in advance, all help is much appreciated.
Proposed translations (English)

Here it is called "automatic change of track gauge"

I may have the wrong idea of course!
