First of all, if I were starting over, it would have to be DCC. When I fini***he layout maybe I'll make the switch - but installing converters in my overly large fleet is a lower priority. So first of all, this layout plan simply begs for DCC and then all your blocks, toggles, etc. disappear as issues. BUt if you truly don't want to take that step, you should instead buy a memory walk-around throttle. This means you just unplug your throttle, go to the other side of the table, and plug it back in. With the memory type, you don't even have to stop the train. You can save a few bucks by getting a non-memory type, in whih case you'll have to stop the train but still don't need to worry about toggling the power between two cabs.
