Hi Mike
A suggestion... Change the switch at the right hand end of the loop so it is a curved switch coming off the bend. This will take the "S" out for a train coming out of the loop and into the bend which could be a source of derailment.
Another suggestion.....swap the position of the points for the scrap yard and juice siding and put in a X-over. This will make the sidings a bit longer particularly the juice siding. Also the switch to the juice siding could be a left hand making the run into the siding less bendy again.
