The B-Roll video of February 4 posted at the NTSB YouTube channel shows the switch stand on the turnout into the auto loading facility to have no switch stand target. In dark territory, reflective switch stand targets are essential for safe operation especially at night. Video does not show the siding turnout switch stand but undoubtedly there is some sloppy railroading going on here. The lack of a SPAF would definitely be another indicator.
