Answer: Yes, as long as one car length occupies the interlocking limits
Feedback:
Unlike manual interlockings, Automatic Interlockings are not controlled, and the signals operate based on train movements. As long as one car occupies the limits of the interlocking, the opposing signals governing movement into the interlocking cannot display Proceed indications.
