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.
與道岔相關的標誌有兩種類型：「道岔預告標誌」和「轉轍器標誌」。
「道岔預告標誌」為一個繪有紅色「Y」字形狀的白色標誌，用於表示前方路段設有道岔與當前路段的速限末端。它的正下方附有一塊白色的附標，用於表示其與道岔的相對距離，以公里為單位。即距離若為400公尺，則以「0.4」標記。
「轉轍器標誌」則被置於轉轍器上。為繪有一條白色對角線的紅色標誌，用於表示轉轍器當前的開通方向。進行轉轍時，轉轍器標誌會隨著軌道的移動指向對應方向。
When operating long trains in reverse, distance tracker can be very useful to navigate switches.
