Got tired of having this conversation over and over again so I just spent way too long making this:

@sidereal UNLESS...the two tracks are closely spaced together. In wich case you want to derail each bogey.

(I know, I know, only some older trams have bogeys, more modern ones have single wheelsets, but had to make the joke anyway)

@Nixie @sidereal Plenty of modern trams have bogies, including all of the examples I can think of. Normally you can't see them for the low floor.
