Definitely not easy, especially when planning a small layout. For this layout I had decided I didn't want to cram in lots of 1 spot industries. The warehouse can take 3 x 50ft cars which can adds a little more switching complexity.

Mal,Those are words of wisdom for all that planning on building a small ISL..

Planning a small ISL does indeed take time and less is best usually is the best path to take when planning a small ISL instead of having a "cram a track everywhere" marathon..

I now fully believe larger industries with several spots is the better approach for interesting operation.

And if you don't mind here is the Slate Creek that almost became a reality and I think I reversed one of your plans. :o
