... topic: 966 Superelevation posted: 29 Oct 2009 16:00 from: Alan McMillan Hello all. Does anybody know what to do with a crossover (as shown below) on a curve? I can't really see what would be the solution as the normal arrangement for superelevated curves is as illustrated which would lead to the crossover track doing some very strange things to go from one line to the other.

I feel sure I've heard of situations where the cant was taken out through a crossover, but this would involve a speed reduction, and in any case I can't think of examples, so may be havering!
