Press the tab key on the keyboard and you should get permission by the signal.But since this is dark territory it shouldn't be a problem not unless you're trying to re-enter the main in a reverse direction..

One other question.Are you planning to back all the way to this signal? If not this signal is not a problem to you.Are you gonna continue to Kalispell after working this siding? You don't have to worry about that signal unless you plan on passing it.Then you'll need permission by it.Pressing the tab key will get you that permission.I hope this helps you..Post a message if this works for you.
