This is a movable switch diamond. It's more common than you would imagine. Although the switches mean more maintenance but these work quite well as there is no gap at the crossing, over which the wheel moves. A similar arrangement is the swing nose crossing used in high speed turnouts these days. Posted by Rajeev Shrivastava on 2008 Apr 07 14:31:15 +0000 |

I have seen switch on a diamond crossing many times. Just before HWH station there are quite a few of them. The speed restriction on the diamonds before HWH is 5 kmph due to danger of derailment. Posted by M S M Saifullah on 2008 Apr 07 06:55:52 +0000 |

Thanx Samit for all the efforts that you have taken. Really came to know a lot about different station names around Howrah. Posted by Arzan Kotval on 2008 Mar 21 06:24:22 +0000 |

Very informative. Cleared by long-standing doubts about some of the lines in and around HWH. Posted by M S M Saifullah on 2008 Mar 18 23:36:17 +0000 |

Other local trivia: Izzatnagar is actually named after one Charles Izat who was the GM of one of the older companies, while the extra Z got added later. Izzatnagar station may well be the smallest station to have a divisional HQ. Posted by Ajai Banerji on 2007 Sep 21 12:25:37 +0000 |
