ABSTRACT:
A power and control signal rail arrangement is disclosed for at least one transportation vehicle directed along a roadway by guide wheels depending from the vehicle and which follow a guide beam incorporated in the roadway. The arrangement provides for mounting power rails and control signal rails on top of the roadway guide beam and also permits factory assembly of the power rails, the control signal rails, and the guide beam as a modular unit. The disclosure also describes a pivotal guide beam switch for directing vehicles between a first and second roadway or, alternatively, between a first and third roadway. A power and control signal rail arrangement cooperative with suitable vehicle collectors provides continuous power and control signals to the vehicle as it passes through the pivotal guide beam switch.
