Through travel on two lines of track meeting at right angles can be obtained by means of the cross track switch.

This is normally accomplish in an electrified system without current in the swing bar which is furnished with conductor bars merely to support the collector shoes while trolleys pass through the switch.

All the advantages of Switches are found in the electrified switch, the only difference being the added depth to take care of bus bars for electric current.
