High Speed Switches (Lack thereof)

$

I've ridden railroads in other countries and even stations similar to Jamaica on the LIRR have high speed switches where they go much faster than snail speed and you wouldn't even know the train is switching tracks unless you were looking out the window.

 

What would prevent something like this in Jamaica or other parts of the regional rail network, is it the 3rd rail? Cost?
