I have also spliced in the control rails. Here is the set up I have at my 97 Coal Elevator. The uncouple magnet is placed before the control rails. This way I can uncouple the dump car and leave it in position for unloading.
Still need to ballast the track. Have been working on this area of my layout for the past few months.

I like what you did with the coal loader. Any info on this project?
