Using Track Warrants doesn't preclude having the dispatcher control the switches. For a meet the dispatcher would tell one train that they have the track into the siding and would tell the other that they have the main to the switch on far side (to them) of the passing siding. The train taking the siding would simply radio the dispatcher when they were to the end of thier warrant. The train on the main would verify that the other was clear of the main, the dispatcher would give them a warrant for the next section and set the switch for the main. When the train on the siding verified that the other was clear of the switch then the dispatcher would set that switch for the siding and give the train a new warrant. All done without a trackside signal, and with no one having to hit the ground.
