I like the plan because it has meaning and it has flexibility. I do have one question about grade separation. If I understand your grades correctly, that point on the right side of the layout where tracks cross, is the single track coming down south passing over the two tracks turning west toward the engine servicing facility?

Well, then, I think that you have a good, workable plan. You ought to build it and see if it operates to your satisfaction. Go for it.
