Munich-Giesing–Kreuzstraße Railway
The Munich-Giesing–Kreuzstraße railway is a single-track, electrified line on the southern edge of Munich in the German state of Bavaria. It is served by Munich S-Bahn line S 7. Route The line branches off the Munich East–Deisenhofen railway between the stations of Giesing and Fasangarten. The section of line from Munich East up to this point is one of the few in Germany that has traffic running on the left. This feature allows S-Bahn services from Munich St. Martinstrasse to be inserted into the S-Bahn line at Munich East while simultaneously reversing to run into the S-Bahn tunnel under central Munich or vice versa. South of Ständlerstraße there is a flying junction where the two tracks change sides. At this point, the line to Kreuzstraße branches off. After a short distance with two tracks (also operated with traffic running on the left) they combine and run east towards Munich-Perlach. Here it crosses Autobahn A 8. After Perlach station the line turns southeast. T ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
15 KV AC Railway Electrification
Railway electrification systems using at are used on transport railways in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Sweden, and Norway. The high voltage enables high power transmission with the lower frequency reducing the losses of the traction motors that were available at the beginning of the 20th century. Railway electrification in late 20th century tends to use AC systems which has become the preferred standard for new railway electrifications but extensions of the existing networks are not completely unlikely. In particular, the Gotthard Base Tunnel (opened on 1 June 2016) still uses 15 kV, 16.7 Hz electrification. Due to high conversion costs, it is unlikely that existing systems will be converted to despite the fact that this would reduce the weight of the on-board step-down transformers to one third that of the present devices. History The first electrified railways used series-wound DC motors, first at 600 V and then 1,500 V. Areas with 3 kV ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Flying Junction
A flying junction or flyover is a railway junction at which one or more diverging or converging tracks in a multiple-track route cross other tracks on the route by bridge to avoid conflict with other train movements. A more technical term is "grade-separated junction". A burrowing junction or dive-under occurs where the diverging line passes below the main line. The alternative to grade separation is a level junction or flat junction, where tracks cross at grade, and conflicting routes must be protected by interlocked signals. Complexity Simple flying junctions may have a single track pass over or under other tracks to avoid conflict, while complex flying junctions may have an elaborate infrastructure to allow multiple routings without trains coming into conflict, in the manner of a highway stack interchange. Flying junction without crossings Where two lines each of two tracks merge with a flying junction, they can become a four-track railway together, the tracks paired by ...
