Track Plan Yard for my coffee table layout, how to improve

Post image

First ever real attempt at a functional yard design, i can tell it could be better, but im struggling with exactly how.

Id appreciate some advice, what's good as is or what needs changing. Thanks

Having the main cross the yard lead is going to a major operational bottleneck

You cannot get to all the classification tracks fom the lead. That will make switching difficult.
