Abstract
The paper presents an analytical method of shaping the turnout diverging railroad track with variable curvature segments on its length, which in an evident way distinguished it from a typical solution, made up of a single circular arc with no transition curves. Two separate causes including a linear and a nonlinear curvature one in the form of a polynomial have been examined. The obtained solutions of the problem have a universal character, i.e. the possibility to adopt any arbitrary values of curvature at the outset and the end of a geometric layout. Taking advantage of the above a comparative analysis of some selected variants could be carried out.
