Weather Inspiration

As progress on the house and more specifically the layout room continues, I have been searching the web for inspiration for the look and feel I want for the railroad and surrounding room.  In my opinion, it would be cliche to model a blue bird day high in the cascade mountains.  I want to break away from the straight sky-blue backdrops with the occasional cloud and truly capture what railroading in the Pacific Northwest is to me.  Below are pictures that demonstrate the cloudy, rainy feel I will try to achieve.  Enjoy!
