enkelspårlinjer
Enkelspårlinjer, also known as single-track lines, are railway lines where trains operate on a single track. This is in contrast to double-track lines, which have two parallel tracks allowing for simultaneous traffic in both directions. Single-track lines are common in areas with lower traffic density or where building a second track is economically or geographically unfeasible.
The operation of trains on single-track lines requires careful scheduling and signaling systems to prevent collisions.
Passing loops, also called sidings or passing places, are essential features of single-track lines. These are
While single-track lines can be more cost-effective to build and maintain, they inherently have lower capacity
