The no-right-turn signs on Caroline southbound south of Erb came on. Those control movements that only conflict with the southbound track, not the northbound one.

That no right turn light even comes on when the nightly chemtrain comes up northbound. Evidently for simplicity they just treated north and southbound movements the same through Erb & Caroline (& pretty much everywhere else both tracks cross). And seems that no right turn light is hard wired to that intersection

Sloppy.

Although to be fair, the no-right-turn is a smaller concern than the fact that Caroline doesn’t get a (mostly) green when only a southbound train comes through. At rush hour I think that would make a noticeable difference to congestion around that intersection.
