T0, T1, T2 etc are all such track circuits. Since train
TR1 is occupying track T0 no other train will be
signaled onto T0 till TR1 moves away from T0.

When facing the point the moving rail on the left hand
side which is marked A in the Fig 1.10 is referred to
as the left hand switch and the moving rail on the right
hand side marked B is referred to as the right hand
switch. In the Fig 1.10 shown with the left hand switch
closed the straight route T1 – T2A – T3 will be
ensured for a train moving over the switch. When the
right hand switch is closed then a divergent route T1 –
T2A – T2B – T4 will be set for a train moving over the
switch.

(a) touches (e), (b) is clear of (d) and trains coming
from 'A' are directed to 'Cl. The condition is shown in
Fig. 2.l(b).When the end touching fixed rail has a gap
less than 5 mm and the other movable end is clear of
the fixed rail the point is said to be set.
