Users using scenery builder in the upcoming version of Train Driver 2 will benefit from curved switches. Full list of switches that will appear in the new builder is shown below. Those fall into three categories:

  • one-sided – both curves with different radii diverge to the left or to the right
  • two-sided – curves with different radii diverge each to the other side
  • two-sided symmetrical – curves with the same radius diverge each to the other side

This categorization is also applied to the builder’s graphical interface.
