here comes the proposed solution for the transition curve problem:

A new attribute named "geometryElementDescription" has been added to the
element <radiusChange>. It is an enumeration parameter, which provides
the following entries that enable a more detailed description of
transition curves:

* TS_cubicParabola
* TS_parabola4
* TS_clothoide
* TS_WienerBogen
* TS_BlossBogen
* TS_Sinusoide
* TS_Cosinusoide
* SC
* (any other)

As already mentioned, the abbreviations TS (Tangent - Spiral) and SC
(Spiral - Curve) describe the points at the beginning and at the end of
the transition curve.

The modifications have been implemented for railML 2.3 with SVN revision
616. For more details, see the Trac ticket [1].
