Great- a picture is worth a thousand words!
Consider though that I'd probably have made 904 to have a main aspect for routing a departing train up to 210, but I agree not 100% essential dependent upon utilisatio. Also could have some benefit for a train propelling from the headshunt as rather more visible from a distance to assist the driver stop prior to it when their driving cab is a very long way away (but probably move may be assisted by shunter / guard in continuous radio contact with driver).
