ya at a diamond its time for the big hole . otherwise it's very common at least in my neck of the woods for there to be long standing problems. One situation is at sidney ohio there are double tracks on the indianapolis like. When a westbound hits the handthrow crossovers at spafford on 2 track at 166 all the eastbound signals from cp 189 east drop red for about 25-30 seconds. I've had conductors freak about it but i'm always like DONT BIG HOLE IT !! One other way to look at it is i'd rather make it through the diamond instead of hit or be hit in the lead unit by some yahoo blowing a signal
