40:56 depending upon what year the bogie exchange stopped in Australia. but either way my mum was born in the year 1960 and she told me that as she took the train to Melbourne as a kid she told me that when the train arrived at Albury she'd haft to wait an hour for the coaches to be converted from the standard to broad gauge bogies. however as much as I'm not disbelieving my mum I have never seen photos or videos of Victorian engines pulling the NSW coaches such as the FS/BS, RBR, FO, N, or American suburban coaches on their bogies all I see is the Victorian state wise trains with state wise rolling stock like for example the r class u see at 41:31 pulling out of Albury from NSW into VIC is pulling e class carriages and not NSW converted ones however that saying from my mum is telling me that she is practically false.

if your mum was born in 1960 as you say , and as a kid lets say 1965 . the standard gauge opened in 1962 , but locomotives were still swapped over at albury . so the NSW locos were exchanged for victorian ones , that would of taken about 1/2 hour . prior to 1962 , you had to gather up all your stuff , leave the NSW train , walk across to the platform and get on the victorian train . there was no bogie exchange ever done on passenger carriages , that would of taken.... hours and hours

Taken from Wiki:
Standard Gauge ::
A standard-gauge railway is a railway with a track gauge of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in). ... It is the most widely used railway track gauge across the world with approximately 55% of the lines in the world using it.

@@elsagillespie5210 Tbf, gauge seems to switch for every state in Australia. I think NSW might''ve been the only one that didn't need to convert any lines to standard gauge
