Hey Chris,
I didn't get a chance to put up this track plan Friday, but here it is.
Wow those are narrow shelves. I made the adjustments to the plan.I added a runaround track on the north shelf to make getting at Preswick Bakery and Highland Citrus easier.
I also added an extra track next to the cement plant on the east shelf to make it easier to switch covered hoppers in and out of the Blackheath Cement Plant. This track is the truncated rest of the old branch line. I would maybe put a small washed out bridge piling here to show why the branch is truncated.
I would consider making the recycling company one track. If it's a recycling company, you may want to consider adding box cars to the mix of traffic for recycled paper (short lines are always looking for extra traffic).
