Jonte, thanks for the feedback.
My idea to have a prototypical operation with a disconnected track 5 and 6 at the right side is to put the burden on the classification yard to group the cars and put the engine at the "right" end to serve the kick back industry. The local should not do a run around.
My draft thoughts about the future industry is as follows:
Tracks 7,8,9 are ok. They are relative long and will persist. May be moved one or two inch when new industry buildings will be set.
Track 10 will not survive in that form. A radical solution would be to connect it directly to track 6
Tracks 11,12,13 are to much and to short. With a vanished track 10 a turnout might get closer to track 6 and form two new longer tracks 11 and 12.
