==== Philippines ==== There is currently no uniform standard for loading gauges in the country and both loading gauges and platform heights vary by rail line. The [[North–South Commuter Railway]] allows passenger trains with a carbody width of {{Cvt|3100|mm|ftin}} and a height of {{Cvt|4300|mm|ftin}}. Additional installations shall also be allowed up to {{Cvt|3300|mm|ftin}} at a platform height of {{Cvt|1100|mm|ftin}} where it is limited by half-height [[platform screen doors]]. Above the platform gate height of {{Cvt|1200|mm|ftin}} above the platforms, out-of-gauge installations can be further maximized to the Asian standard at {{Cvt|3400|mm|ftin}}.<ref name="ps">NSCR and SLH bid documents <!-- Uses Google Drive links --> at {{Cite web|title=Foreign Assisted Projects|url=https://ps-philgeps.gov.ph/home/index.php/bid-opportunities/foreign-assisted-projects|date=2021-04-06|access-date=2022-11-25}}</ref> Meanwhile, the [[PNR South Long Haul]] will follow the Chinese gauge and therefore use a larger carbody width of {{Cvt|3300|mm|ftin}} from the specifications of passenger rolling stock, and a height of {{Cvt|4770|mm|ftin}} per P70-type boxcar specifications.<ref name="ps"/>
