After looking at the pictures it got me thinking. If you had two main lines and ran the trains in the same direction. One train would jump to the other main line. As the track only has one toggle for two switches on each end. Thus causing one switch to be open and the other closed. Unless there is a dead spot allowing for the switch to be open on both tracks. It would be nice to have separate toggles for each switch.
