Does anyone know how to deal with turn outs when calculating stopping headways? If you have a brach off a main line (100km/h to 80km/h) via a 40km/h turn out do you have to include the 40km/h turn out in your calcs and the associated acceleartion / deceleration involved or do you just take the 'simple case' of the branch line speed and take it from there?
I'm looking at the 2002 examination layout 1 and (hopefully) am making things needlessly complicated.
Any help gratefully received.
