Different state rail gauge history & why



Sir,
I am seeking information about the history of the original rail systems that commenced in Australian states and their various "RAIL GAUGES" and the reasons why they were so different from state to state at the time.
 
What a wonderful advantage it would have been to have had a COMMON NATIONAL RAIL GUAGE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE STEAM RAIL ERA!
 
Can you help me please?
