at the (track) dualling point

Explanation:

Okay, this is for all German-mothertongue-but-still-foreigners:
Now, that you forced me to investigate, take this:
Es gibt eine Auslegung auf Teilung, das heißt Auslegen auf eine bestimmte Schwellenteilung - und mit diesem Begriff SCHWELLENTEILUNG bitte nochmal googeln und dann in sich gehen ;-)
