Maybe you could use these on that module we previously discussed.
I really don't see a need for any signals, as this appears to be a lot of "yard" trackage. If the through track is the main line and could be...
Bit confusing mixing the terms "crossovers" and "crossings".
At Leipsic where the NKP and the B&O crossed was XN (NKP)/RO (B&O) same tower, different call letters. B&O's XN tower was where the DT&I crossed...

The plan that was always talked about was that conductor "utility" personnel would have a truck and be stationed every 50-100 miles to handle such...
One Class I CEO said he could solve the labor shortage in 1 minute. Let him run 1 man crew, then there would be plenty of conductors. That's all...
