#train-help has a ton of pins, but you want chains before and inside the intersection to break up the blocks, looks like your Rail signals are fine

As an FYI 4 lanes are not that useful

Just before is the easiest way to think of it, two Chain signals between two crossings don't do anything more than 1, so before a crossing, Chain signal

IIRC the absolute peak of 4 lanes is about 50% more throughput than 2 lanes and most people don't come anywhere close to using 2 lanes enough that this is relevant so its a lot more material for probably 0 gain, rails, signals and space are cheap so its not a humongous loss compared to your time in redesigning and replacing.

If you have designed and placed a lot I wouldn't tear it up tbh I figured you were still in the design phase
