Track with two rails 6, 7 arranged on a real surface strip with an angle of superelevation ψ, there running centrally between these rails a real spatially running directrix 5 with a predetermined profile curvature, with a predetermined changing angle of direction φ and radii of curvature R and a predetermined, possibly changing, angle of gradient σ and a predetermined changing angle of superelevation ψ, with respect to the rails 6, 7, with the angle of direction φ, the angle of gradient σ and the angle of superelevation ψ being a function of the arc length s of the directrix 5, and the function of the angle of superelevation ψ after the arc length s being constant both in its rise and in the change of its rise after the arc length.
