A junction, in the context of rail transport, is a place at which two or more rail routes converge or diverge. The physical connection between the tracks of the two routes (assuming they are of the same gauge) is provided by turnouts (US: switches) and signalling.[1] Junctions are important for rail systems: their installation in a rail system can expand route capacity and improve on-time performance.
