single crossover, double crossover

Swedish translation: enkel växelkorsning, dubbel växelkorsning

English term or phrase: single crossover, double crossover
I have "växelkryss" for double crossover and "enkel överkorsning" for single crossover, but need to confirm the expressions.
Examples:
A double crossover will be used for trams to enter and leave the two end-tracks.
The existing single crossover will also remain in place for emergency use.

Tack för bra referenser! Jag fick till slut fram både korsningsväxel och växelkorsning - väntar på feedback från kund så jag vågar inte lägga in i glossary.
