Just a minor point.
Unless the rules have changed in recent years, I believe I am correct when I say that the pilotman does not necessarily need to travel on all trains. Therefore if it is known initially that two or more trains need to travel in the same direction, the pilotman having shown himself to and instructed a driver can dispatch the train into the section and then follow on the last train of the "flight".
Like "train staff and ticket" working.
Anyone sufficiently keen to check up what the current Rulebook actually says?

Pilot working slows traffic down (dependant upon levels) and has the disadvantage of one pilot who would need to travel if two trains needs to go in the same direction sequentially without an opposite direction move.
