Proto-Future 20: How to model Modern Transit, Part 3: FLIRTing with Layout Design

, , , , , , , , , ,

In part three of this three-part series, I explain the ways in which layouts can host modern transit and modeling-relevant operations, giving examples for layouts small, medium, and large for how to realistically and entertainingly model walking, bicycling, busses, streetcars, trams/straßenbahnen, light rail, stadtbahnen, tram-trains, DMUs, heavy rail subways, schnellbahnen/RERs, intercity rail, long distance/night trains, High-eR Speed Rail (HRSR), and High Speed Rail (HSR).

Have a Thought? 

Proto-Future is attempting to do something which has never been done in model railroading before. I am here to ruffle feathers, seed ideas, get rusty gears turning, and help the hobby escape the transition-era worshiping rut we’ve been in for 30+ years, thereby better appealing to younger generations and improving the world around us along the way. If you have any thoughts at all – good or bad – pause for a second, think them through, make sure they’re logical, then email me, and we’ll see where it goes.

While the podcast is transitioning to Proto-Future, I still happily accept beginner questions and will address them on-air every now and then. Feel free to email me via the contact form, and I’ll do my best to help you in your quest.
