Another lesson we learned in this area is that a cutoff switch for emergencies on this side of the layout would be really good. The big chain is controlled only by the switch on the other side of the layout, and if anything went wrong with the chain (damage, break, miss-aligned train) it was difficult to quickly cut power. The motor and switch you see in this picture only power the belt at the bottom. We keep several 1x3 plates here too in case they pop off of the chain.
