But my question here is: The switch at the left that's going out of the
picture (off the bottom) is actually one switch of a crossover from the
foreground track (with the Phoebe on it) to the track immediately to the
left of it. Now: Since the Phoebe track is superelevated, and the one
next to it isn't.... how's that work? Does the switch on the Phoebe
track start on an un-superelevated section, and only once past thw
switch does the track go superelevated?
