This local was working at Olathe on the ex Frisco. There were sidings that were facing point in both directions. To access them, the power would work with cars on both ends, with crewmen flagging moves. It was unconventional, and probably inconvenient, but it eliminated a lot or run around moves in CTC territory. It looked like one of those ancient "make do" situations that would probably get everyone fired now.
