    Assuming the locomotive driving wheels are supported on rollers, I would think it’s relatively straight forward to design them for multiple gauges. A similar priciple to dual gauge or multigauge track. I think one of the locomotive manufacturers (I can’t remember which – possibly Hunslet) had a multiple gauge test track on which it could run locomotives of most gauges.
