Was it Ray Earl that only used to model what could be seen from the front by the public at shows, as would be the case in the theatre.  I seem to recall seeing beautifully finished coaches on one side whilst the reverse side was unpainted and not detailed.

I love the look of your layout and modelling.  Although I am largely a BR modeller I do like industrial stuff, I built both the 0 and 00 versions of the DJH Andrew Barclay, the 0 gauge was sold on some time ago to fund some EM gauge stock, however I still have the 00 version and I keep thinking about converting to EM using some spare axles I have.  I have recently converted the Hornby DS48 using the same method that Andrew Avis developed.
