It seems to me that the two tracks could merge into a single track 2-3 minutes travel time from the terminus and continue as a single track to the end. This would involve one switch and no crossovers of specialwork, as compared to the actual four switches and one crossover.
In case we want to extend the track beyond the current termini in the future?
