+Pre- and exit signals are not dragged [FS#4378]
+	Unlike all other signal types, the entry- and exit signals are not
+	dragged but instead normal signals are placed on subsequent track
+	sections. This is done on purpose as this is the usually more con-
+	venient solution. There are little to no occasions where more than
+	one entry or exit signal in a row are useful. This is different
+	for all other signal types where several in a row can serve one
+	purpose or another.
