Three challenges:
1) Using three double ended tracks at far left for runaround moves - no room to run around, since the rightmost turnout is right at the end of the board. You need room for at least an engine to the right of the turnout. I would have put a crossover between the main and the first yard track below further left, and maybe have made the two yard tracks single ended.
2) Rightmost industry at far right has spur that comes in leftwards from the edge of the layout. Flip the spur for that industry, and push the industry out to the end of the board,and switched that towards the right.
3) Industry at lower left is at a switchback spur that demands that another industry be emptied before you can switch that industry. See if you e.g. can make the access to the lowermost industry on the left cross over the spur to the middle industry on the left instead.
