scope:
This part of this European Standard specifies: - characterisation of wheel and track dimensions; - geometric design principles for wheel guidance; - design principles for wheel load transfer; - deciding whether movable crossings are needed. These are illustrated by their application to turnout components: - switches; - crossings; - check rails. but the principles apply equally to more complex layouts.
