When running 24 TPH you don't really want any points at all.

Don't forget these are long 12 car trains running into or out of the
SPILL station stop - and all trains will stop - they ain't going to be
high speed across the convergence point.


Those two seem mutually contradictory. There's plenty of time to change
the points while each train is stopped in the station.
