Parkandillack Branch loops Today at 00:55 #161024

As described in the manual the Parkandillack branch operates with train staff, from what I understand of train staff operation is you must have the staff to move on the branch.
As simulated it is effectively a very long single line dead end siding, but as drawn it hints to loops on the branch at Drinnick Mill and Parkandillack.
Would it be possible in a future version of the sim, to simulate these loops such that you can leave wagons in the branch without blocking it?
Something like if a line option is not selected/is blank in the timetable trip editor the train runs straight down the main but if a loop option is selected, the train uses the loop, similar to how the BAY & JNL options work at Liskeard Yard GF, this would make a potential change backwards compatible with existing timetables which don't use a loop line option
Functioning like the attached crude diagram, noting I am not asking for the added complication of a head shunt and full loop at Parkandillack, the pretend the loco runs around the train functionality we have at the moment works perfectally fine.

Attached is also a WTT that at current doesn't work but could work if implemented.

I fully expect Devs to say "no, not worth the time to implement". But if I don't ask, I defiantly won't get get

The train now standing on platform 2, should be on the rails
