Looks like you've got some work to do Jeff. Those 072 curves really eat up a lot of space.
A couple of thoughts; make the outer tracks loops (I know, boring....) with double crossovers. It will free up the middle for your yards and other features and industries you are trying to fit. A couple of long passing sidings would give the appearance of a 4 track main, and could give you the passenger storage, and station space you are looking for.
The corners outside of the 072 mains are good spots for smaller industries with 1or 2 track spurs. If you are up against walls, building flats are a good alternative to full-size buildings.
Play with a ladder yard lead instead of "Y" leads. The "Y's" take up a lot of room.
I hope to replace the current RSJ&B one day too, whether it's in our current house or a different one.
Keep us posted, looking forward to your last run video.
Bob
