Or another Railbike travelling in the opposite direction?
- viraptor 5y agoThen you stop, take one off the rails and swap positions.
- robin_reala 5y agoIf it’s like the ones I’ve been on, you either lift them off the rails, or if you’re just hiring them, sometimes just both turn yours the other way and swap.
- Kaibeezy 5y agoDefinitely an issue with personal rail travel, whether from the opposite direction or an unclearable traffic jam in the same direction, and whether two rails or mono.

- queuep 5y agoThe ones I've rode look like these[0], so in case they are running in different directions, you can easily lift up the one side with just one wheel on both vehicles, and then just push them. Simple and not a heavy lift either.

- evanb 5y agoObviously you must stick to the schedule to allow for passing of oncoming or overtaking rail traffic at sidings.
- PhasmaFelis 5y agoOne of you gets off the track to allow the other to pass. A normal bicycle can be lifted in one hand. This looks more unwieldy but not too much heavier. It shouldn't be hard. (If two riders are both so oblivious that neither sees the other coming from at least a quarter-mile off, they deserve to crash.)
