That being said, I'm not sure breaking it up would help any, I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear that they require both directions to be unpowered before freight proceeds.
As far as I know, you are right about electric freight in North America. I will say that I suspect there probably is some oddball system somewhere, but basically none.
As to the unpowered in both directions, the freight definitely passes a stopped LRV at Seagram station on the other track. To me it would be bizarre if the trains could pass only if the LRV were motionless, but who knows.
