Remove the 'run-around' in switching area 2. The area is small enough that the proto railroad would probably get rid of the extra switch to save on maintenance costs, and gives you the oportunity to use a shoving platform.

Actually that run around is needed as a locomotive escape on a pull in move..

Instead of using a old caboose most railroads would use the run around or engines on both ends of the train.

There would be little maintenance cost on maintaining that switch since its not a heavily used switch..
