Train moves without the guard!

In Geoff Marshall's video on Combe Junction part of the junction procedure is shown, with the guard operating the ground frame. The driver moves through the junction, and the points are reset- which seems a bit odd given the next train through the junction is the same unit returning.

Are there any other locations where a passenger train that operates with a guard routinely moves with the guard on the ground? Obviously this is a risk assessed procedure with strict instructions.

It is because there could be a freight train to go from Liskaerd along past Coombe Junction Halt.
