An apparatus for carrying out this includes a blower assembly (8) between the rails in a railway switch, the assembly being supplied by a fan unit (20) and adapted to provide a substan- tially horisontal air discharge directed obliquely outwards towards the open endbetween the stock rail and the movable rail in their separated positions.
