> Separating locomotives from trains next?
Someone wrote a patch for version 8 or 9 years ago which enabled coupling and decoupling, although one needed to set it up in a specific order to avoid failing couplings or train crashes. It's a shame the devs never picked it up.
> And then, finally, hump yards?
I doubt a hump yard will ever be a feature because as far as I see it, it would need a complete overhaul of the way orders are set up and handled. Right now it's one semi-static order list for the whole train and a sorting yard needs dynamic order lists per locomotive and each wagon.
