Railway switch consists of a switch, connecting rails and a frog. Connecting rail set of an ordinary switch consists of two straight and curved rails. Curved rails have some radius. This curve is called a switch curve.

In railML3 model it is possible to represent radius of each branch of the railway switch. Negative and positive values have corresponding meaning defined as in the <horizontalCurve>/@radius attribute.
