You remove all signals between junction and unload station, but the whole setup will only work if you have only one train per mine.

You should read up on waiting bays and stackers.

Google factorio train stacker tutorial.

Good general train tutorials include viewtopic.php?f=194&t=18621 , and https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... ts_23_and/ (that link is to part 1. links to part 2 and 3 are in the reddit comments).
