If the control circuit is powered only by the local trolley
voltage in the lead car and there are no bus jumpers, then
the whole train would drop out when the lead car goes over a gap,
no?

The IRT HI-Vs had a big bus jumper heavy enough for motor current.
It was protected by a current limiting resistor. Control power
was thus always available.
