The China Railway (07)009 350kph No. 18 Swingnose Crossing is a high-speed Swingnose Crossing designed for a speed of 350kph, with a forward speed of 350kph and side speed 80kph. The smallest type of switch used by Chinese railways in ballastless tracks is the No. 18, which is widely installed on platform sidings. On a fixed railway crossing, the wheels need only drift by a small angle, say 1 in 20, before the vehicle may start to go in the wrong direction at the V of a V-crossing. This problem can limit the maximum speed of vehicles using the crossing. In addition, the open gap at a fixed V-crossing forms a weak point on the railway line where the heavily loaded wheel must bump across the resulting gap of about 10 cm (4 in), supported only by the portion of the wheel tread which is on the wing rail. This pounds the rail so much that the steel can deform and/or wear away. This damage may easily spread to other components including the wheels, and the noise can be a nuisance. Scheduling repair of damage can also be a problem in high traffic locations. Swingnose crossings virtually eliminate the gap at V-crossings allowing for higher vehicle speeds.
