Kalmback has a book on Intermodal info and even 2 intermodal terminals, one in N and 1 in HO.

Well worth the money.

Here are some links

Rudywa,
Welcome to the MR Forums !
Another site you might be interested in is:
http://www.intermodaltransport.com
and, you also might want to join the Yahoo! groups intermodal group. There's been some discussion of yard modeling in past threads.
