A.
The line which connects a number of parallel tracks, and also provides an access to main track, is called a gathering line |
|
B.
With a diagonal gathering line, the length of the siding decreases with increase of its distance from main track |
|
C.
To have sidings of same length, a diagonal line is laid at one end and a parallel gathering line at the other end |
|
D.
For most economical layout of yards, the gathering lines are laid at the limiting angle |
