Hi Mark,
Welcome to the Forum.
It looks as if your layout design is beginning to come together. I think you are wise to limit train length to 4 coaches. I have done the same with my new layout (See my thread the Will Valley Railway.) The station I have shown the plan for is the branch off a branch and would generally only receive two coach loco hauled trains although there is scope for longer DMU trains.
Once you have your baseboards I think it is worth doing what I have done, laying any old sectional track you might have plus use the full size Peco drawing of their various points. It is amazing how your ideas change as you shuffle everything around and hopefully it might avoid some fasle starts!
I also have the rest of the layout drawn out full size on Wallpaper backing paper, again using the Peco drawings and some of my sectional track. It also means you can put some stock and buildings on which further shows how it might look.
Anyway keep sharing your ideas (as I will be doing with my Will Valley thread)
Good Luck and have fun.
Best wishes,
John H-T.
