FOR CONSIDERATION:
Down Valley Branch to Station C
My min SBD for the Branch lines is 772m and max 1025m. Would it be possible to place a main aspect on the Down Valley Branch at say 660m and then place a signal on the bi-directional Down Valley section at around 1780m. Obviously slightly overbraked, but it would allow freight to be run right up to the Switch diamonds and held there. Standage would be limited as Peter previously mentioned. A sub signal provided with the main aspect at 1780m would then allow facilite a shunt move into the station area.
Station C to Down Valley Branch
A PL at Station C (DOWN MAIN) platform would then permit a shunt move onto the bi-directional Down Vally Branch. A main aspect placed at 1400m would then allow any freight standing to be signalled across the viaduct to the Up valley Branch.
Would this work or I'm I missing something?
