Block signalling for mainline/industrial crossovers

Sounds like I'll be radio'ing it in. I'm using a track plan for an industrial area based on one I found in a Kalmbach track plan book, and where I have crossings, they dropped the track under the main and had the main over a bridge. While the idea would work better overall, I prefer the crossings, and having the added challenge of working around mainline traffic. I've designed a double track concrete manufacturing/distribution plant that will see concrete covered hoppers out, and aggragate open hoppers in, but there's only a single track crossing so I'll most likely be fouling the main quite a bit as I move cars in and out. I like complexity, can you tell? lol And I just got a brain fart... I think when I play with the track plan again, I may design it as a complete double track main so I can run trains in both directions continuously.... Just a thought.
