This is an improved version of my previous design, it doesn't need any hardware anymore and better holds guides in place.The switch is compatible with standard lego city tracks, it features spring action allowing train to come in from both directions while maintaining selected position (similar to how standard lego switch functions). A short video of spring action https://imgur.com/a/tzJXaQ7The length of each branch is 1.5 of standard R40 curve pieces so, an STL with 0.5 curve piece is also attached.No screws required for assemblyWYE switch R40 V3 base LP.stl main mechanical partWYE switch R40 V3 extension non mechanical switch part with diverging tracks.

This part is sensitive to elephant foot, in case if it doesn't slide well try to trim excess plastic with a knife that will likely help, also make sure that top surfaces which slide inside the base piece need to be relatively smooth to avoid binding.WYE switch R40 V3 guide a.stl and WYE switch R40 V3 guide b.stl are left and right rail guides, they are mirrored copies of the same partswitch R40 guide pin.stl retaining pin holding moving guides in place.
