A flying junction accomplishes this separation by means of Grade Separation by having individual tracks rise and/or fall to pass over or under other tracks. Simple flying junctions may have a single track pass over the mainline to avoid conflict, while complex flying junctions may have an elaborate Infrastructure to allow multiple routings among a variety of tracks without trains coming into conflict. The opposite of a flying junction is a Level Junction , where tracks cross At Grade and routings must be controlled by Signal s and an Interlocking plant. EXTERNAL LINKS
