They call this a rail switch.
They must have had one at the Remise line in the Volksgarten
too.
This operation was good only for two trams one up one down,
You can also see the street illumination with carbide lamps
that had to be lowered and refueled than repositioned by
an intricate roller system.
19 century.

At the beginning..... when the electrical corporation made the line, it =
was on one track only and interchangeable on Ringplatz. The one up and =
the one down had to meet and wait for the other to continue their path. =
But that was far back in Austrian times - the exact date being available =
somewhere in an article of Der Tag on some anniversary of the line, =
republished by our friend Edgar Hauster a few years ago.
