An Eastbound coasts down the grade through Hamilton Jct and on towards the Oakville Sub. During the eventual triple tracking of the Oakville Sub in the 2000's, some bean-counter decided to remove the signal plant at Hamilton Jct and combine it with Bayview. This meant the RTC when giving a headroom light on track 1 at Bayview effectively was unable to line up an Eastbound train on the North track at Copetown, or get a shorter train such  as VIA ahead at Bayview (old Ham Jct).
