The final block is the main yard. This is where all the fun happens. The
classification yard tracks, runaround track, and lead track allow me to swap
cars around pretty easily, so that I can break down inbound trains from the
A/D track, or build up outbound trains headed out of town.

On the topic of fun, classification, and yard work, have you tried John Allen’s
Timesaver switching puzzle? It’s very compatible with LEGO. A version I created
is available here:

The nice think about the puzzle in LEGO is that you can mark destinations with
colored bricks, then shuffle correspondingly colored bricks, and deal them out
to the cars. Then get each car to its matching destination.
Have fun!
