In order to establish connections between the general circulation tracks, and between these and station tracks, devices must be installed on the track which are able to move in a crosswise direction, there by permitting the choice of the appropriate path for the treads. This device in general, is complex and its complexity increases at high speeds (> 200 km/h). Following this, the article deals briefly with some of the solutions adopted to ensure movement on the shunts under optimal safety and comfort conditions, along with the extended useful life of this device in comparison with the conventional railroad.
