I also did a mini-ops session just to see how things went.

Extremely valuable to do before you get scenery in. I've done similar - switch some cars around and see if the track lengths are okay and that tracks do not need to be relocated. It is much easy to change things before the scenery and ballast is in place. No matter how much planning you do, there will always be that one siding that is hard to access, the run around track that is just a few inches to short, or that switching maneuver that is near impossible. Sometimes playing around a bit helps (made me realize I needed one more track).
