You can turn a southbound arriving train @ 36/4 th by having the t/o change ends in the station. The way the switch configuration is: when the t/o moves north from either the express or local track he can only wind up on the northbound express track. This is safely done by signal control with the t/o making a "reverse move". Of course it is only advisable in an emergency. The following southbound trains are held south of 25/4 and since the train is being crossed against the plant you also have to hold the next arriving northbound express. |
