: RailRoad Frog = Intersecting railroad tracks cross through each other on a special track section called a railroad frog. Any clues how it became known as a frog other then a visual similiarly to a crushed, splayed and dried real frog?
A railroad frog is a switch that allows a train's wheels to "leap" across intersecting rails at a junction.
