High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A passing loop (also called a passing siding, crossing loop, crossing place or, colloquially, a hole) is a place on a single line railway or tramway, often located at a station, where trains or trams in opposing directions can pass each other.Trains/trams in the same direction can also overtake, providing that the signalling arrangement allows it. A passing loop is usually double ended and connected to the main track at both ends, though a dead end siding, which is much less convenient, can be used. A similar arrangement is used on the gauntlet track of cable railways and funiculars.
