guard rail

Could it be the barrier situated opposite the switch element to keep the whells from "jumping track" when passing the switch?
Peer comment(s):

disagree Tim Kynerd : "Spårspärr" is normally a derailer (a device which derails trains that attempt to enter a section of track when they shouldn't). "Spårspärrdriv" would be the motor for a derailer.
