If you look at operation as a game, putting cars in your yard tracks is moving you up to a more difficult level. If you find it too easy with no cars in the yard, add a couple. With experience you'll be able to operate with the yard half full. At some point, though, the congestion will take away from the fun.
We visited a layout once and one fellow operated the yard in the back room and claimed he'd managed to move one car in the whole session. (It was built by a professional railroader. I was moving one car out of a siding and got a call that the company hadn't finished unloading it yet, and could I please put it back.)
