Switches are moveable pieces of track designed to steer rail vehicles in one of two possible directions. Depending on the session difficulty settings , switches can be operated in many ways:

Using comms radio aimed at the switch
Using station and route schematic maps with the Dispatcher license
Using switch setter gadget
Using mouse cursor in mouse mode
By manually interacting with the switch lever

When crossing a switch from the diverging end, it needs to be aligned to the desired direction of travel. When crossing it in the opposite direction, however, the switch doesn't need to be aligned. It will automatically change to the track that the crossing wheels are coming from.

有两种类型的标志与开关相关：公告标志和导航标志。

告示牌在白色背景上呈红色“Y”形，表示前方即将转弯和当前限速路段结束。它下面有一个白色的附件标志，表示距离开关剩余的距离，以公里为单位。例如，400 米的距离将标记为“0.4”。

导航标志位于开关本身。它在红色背景上显示一条对角白线，表示开关设置的方向。改变开关将移动标志以指向不同的方向，以及轨道对齐。

When operating long trains in reverse, a distance tracker gadget can be very useful to navigate switches.
