Tunnels and Bridges with signals.
Not being able to use signals in long tunnels and bridges limited their use dramatically. I normally located depots next to them as to absorb traffic jams. I made a solution now that simulates signals in the tunnel. The working is quite simple. Every time after a train enters the tunnel, it becomes invisible for the train behind it. When the train behind is faster it will be stopped when coming too close to the train in front. On bridges and tunnels this is one signal every six tiles.

Just remove the signal on the ramp.
