@KawaTora @kegill Yup, and Brits call switches "points".
@farbenstau @KawaTora @kegill Japan must have imported a lot of terms associated with railways from the UK. They call switches ポイント (literally "points") in Japanese. Sleepers are 枕木 ("pillow wood"), which I'd imagine was coined based on the UK term.
