Choosing to model in a prototype in a specific location this is really a philosophy that provides a guide to the modeling. Prototype modeling created alternatives such a freelance, prototype freelancing but share one common thread; they all provide a context and constraint for one's modeling.
Layout Philosophy:
O scale 7 mm NSWGR
Prototype freelanced location
NMRA DCC Control
Sound equipped locomotives
Sound equipped rolling stock
Modular construction
Stage Set to Stage Set Layout Design.
Background Sound Track for each Stage Set
Object specific Dynamic Point Sounds
Day and Night Lighting effects
Animation of non railroad items
Computer control with JMRI Panels
Use of only water based materials
Foam scenery and paint texture base
Natural Scenery colouring
Scale Time Zones and Timetable
Signal's Home & Distant
Interlocked lever frames
Ask for help when its needed and offered....!
Tall order? Maybe but remember it's now 2012 and not the 80's and the hardware, control and equipment now exist at a affordable level to allow such a philosophy to be attempted. Some of the objectives outlined have a clear solution others not so clear but we not have to invent the systems to attempt all the objectives as the technology exists waiting to be adapted now..!
