Instead, cart 2 was traveling on single track 1,
Connected track 13, 13' corresponding to 1' is connected to single track 1,
The single tracks 1, 1', which are discontinuous at the intersections and are discontinuous at the intersections, are brought into a connected state by the connecting tracks 13, 13' and the support 12. These connecting tracks 13, 13' are the single track 1,
Check switch 2 to see if 1' is connected.
2, 22. Therefore, the golf cart 2 arriving along the single track 1 is connected to the connecting track 13,
13' and the intersection connected by the support 12, and cross over to the opposite single track 1' side.
