Paul,A small yard in a industrial area would be used for overflow cars and holding empties not for actual breaking down and building of trains..I have use such yards on my larger ISLs..They also give you some head room when needed by having a place to leave cars out of the way while you work the industries.

Also note that there is only two tracks to that "yard" so,again its for holding cars.

IMHO that top layout favors a switching puzzle design so,I would pass.
