One thing I was thinking of that would be cool to have, would be to have something similar to the Introductory Train Rides in MSTS, but maybe develop it a bit further.. Allow us to be a passenger onboard the train, switching between for example dining car, lounge, first class, second class etc... While the train drives itself... And of course in addition you can be able to jump to the cab, or to an outside view of the train, as in the MSTS ITRs. What would be cool, of course, but would demand that all locos and passenger cars be modelled with a detailed interior, would be to be able to walk freely through the train, interacting with stuff onboard, putting your head out of the passenger car windows, etc

It would be kind of neat to have something where every now and again you could just sit back and enjoy the scenery. You could be "deadheading" for those who think it's a waste of code I also like the idea of being able to switch which car you're in, but i don't think it's necessary to go as far as complete mobility within the train.----------- BUZZ -----------
