To keep the scenario believable I have aligned the rear two track with a supposed closed tunnel mouth. This, in theory was an old goods yard on a once through route, converted to a Fuelling Point in the 1960’s when the through route closed.

I agree with you on having a back story. It ‘fixes’ the location and purpose of the scene and helps plan stock and movements.
