When I lived in Detroit, my father worked at the ford's Rouge plant, I and went there pretty often so I got to see lots of eqquipment, hot metal bottle cars, RC switchers, lots of CSX and Chessie equippment, and I think a hump yard (I say that because remember seeing some cars rolling on their own and the line was kinda sloped, does anyone know if there was a hump yard over there?). As for what influenced my modeling, I'd have to say it was the movie Silver Streak, especially the parts where the train goes through some forests, I liked the combination of trains and forests.
