I used the hinges to keep within the "ItLUG train modules constraints".
We specified the rails to be one plate height over the baseplates...
You can see pictures of the (small) yard here:

I hope to publish a small video of the yard soon.
It can swap the relative position of three wagons: let's say A, B and C are
three wagons (the small hoppers in the pictures), and L is the loco. You can
go into the yard with this train: ABCL, and came out with CABL.
Cheers
Carlo.
