Dual gauge trains still need changeover stations, which are themselves expensive and complicated, as well as being targets for attack. Unloading to new trains carry the same problems; expensive, time consuming, and make for excellent targets. Logistics are the least interesting part of war for most people, but are one of, if not the most, important part.
