each gare with his own art style !
so a few quick idea before i real try to search for more:
1:
firefighting train ,
2
2:choose the track gauge, do we conform to an already existing one or do we create a new one
3:creating a
device that would allow wheel vehicle tu use rail if needed
4: a
predidential railcar ,or just a high security railcar that can be used by any vip president included
5:a litle
something to make stations more weelchair friendly
6:two idea to make the whole thing a little less expansive
1 ,
2
7:maybe a training station with training train and stuff like
that
8:maybe letting people voting on the decoration of their local railcar/station ?,trying to let local artist do some stuff ?
finaly had some time to add idea,will try to add other people idea to make a repository, maybe it will help someone maybe not:
9:have attachment points on the bodywork to add possible decorative bodywork panels or other decorations, possibly armor panels to transform into an armored train (maybe ask help from the soviets if we do that or full armord train ?,they have experience with that)
10:have cranes suitable for train and station logistics,perhaps have one on top of a locomotive of a possible fire train to clear the acid trains from the tracks
11:have shelters for taking naps in stations for people who have to wait several hours for their trains in the middle of the night
12:have ephemeral art wagons which will be stored in a place accessible to the artist when they are not rolling, once judged to be correctly decorated the wagon will be kept with this painting for a few months before being scrubbed and put back in the decoration area so that 'another artist can paint it
13:have a terrace car at the end of the line, an open flat car with a pergola or in a veranda depending on the season with railings, chairs, tables where people can enjoy the view
14:have points planned to be able to quickly weld/install cannons, anti-aircraft weapons and others on stations and wagons
15:encouraged but not forced to maintain a general dragon theme through the different artistic styles of the stations and trains
16: list of possible railcare to draft inspiration from,
1,
2
17 : adapted our stations and wagons for disabled people
18:have wagons designed for drug users (tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, etc., not sure if a separate wagon or a general drug wagon), one for babies, (individual soundproofed cabins perhaps?, enough to prevent thess shit , piss, vomit and screams factoryes to transforme the journey of others into hell),sex, people will fuck on trains no matter what we do especially in such a horny and relaxed nation, we might as well make it safe and without hitch
19:free and accessible bathrooms are probably a good idea
20:having air conditioning/heating or at least the possibility of opening the windows would be nice
21:I have no idea how long the maximum journey would be but even if we don't put a sleeping car, retractable berths or failing that the possibility of lowering the seat in the lying position and curtains would be good for night journeys , a bar or restaurant car would be pleasant if not necessary
22:having the telephone and once the technology improved a network connection would be a nice gadget
23:given that it is likely that people are going to act stupid on the roofs of the wagons whatever we do, having stairs and railings should at least limit the damage
24:with our left-wing policy the wagons will probably all be of the same class instead of 1st, 2nd, 3rd
25: possible train Car Design (Seats one the sides, 12 per side and between each door, toilet/hygiene section every five cars, faux-red wood panneling and blue seats with dragon motives.)
26: possible railway Station Architecture (Sleek Minimalism coupled with Guang Cyberstyle.)
27,possible Railway Station Artworks (Large sections of the station interiors are left empty to be painted by local artists however they, and the local unions, desire (as long as it is buff dragons.)),maybe sculpture, engraving and others too?
28: possible Unified Locomotives (Nuclear Jet-Engine driven locomotives in Guang Serpent Dragon artistic style, capable of 500km/h at full 50 cargo traincars.)
29: possible Train Car Design: Combine Oriental Aesthetics with Technological Sophistication, Embrace the Future!
30: possible Railway Station Architecture: As with the Trains, Mate Local Culture with Visions of Tomorrow
31: possible Railway Station Artworks: Comission Local Artists to Convey their Hometown's Best Aspects - Their History, Landmarks, Local Heroes, Fashions, Natural Wonders, Epic Events, And More!
32: possible Unified Locomotives: Make the trains engines modular, necessitating the least amount of changes depending on purpose.
33:Linear induction motors with a aluminum plate on the tracks for propulsion like SkyTrain to improve uptim, reduce maintenance, and let it climb steep grades without the need for rack and pinion systems
34:Actively steered single axle bogeys with independently rotating wheels to reduce weight, rail wear and noise
35:Automatic couplers (mechanical connection, electrical power, atd data) to reduce the need for manual intervention
36:No locomotives, electric multiple units all the way for going up steeper grades and creating more flexibile trains at the car level
37:Modular ballastless track with continuous welding and white paint reduce solar thermal expansion, speed up construction, reduce earthmoving, reduce maintenance, and eliminating hydraulic pump.ing in the wet season
38:Soviet wide gauge for ease of export and the extra space for 3x3 seating as well as increased stability and rationalization with the USSR (active steering and independently rotating wheels make up for what's would normally need a wider turning radius)
39:Central traffic control with moving blocks and telecommunication based signal transmission
40:Fully grade separated high speed intercity rail with flying junctions
41:Concrete viaduct based raised rail for intra-city use, with weather/noise covers and under track utilities and contenaries for pantograph trucks and lorries
42:Shared right of ways with utilities (telecom, power, pipelines)
43:Modular freight containers and common wagons for freight
44: pumped hydro trackside energy storage for regen braking downhill and boost uphill
45:addition of small tunnels under the rails for wildlife
46:decided whether we calibrate ourselves to an already existing standard for containers or whether we create a new
47: possible Train Car Design Comfortable interior, accessible interior with a ramp to gain access to the carriage. Padded seats with seatbelts. Most of passenger carriage is taken up by a configuration of two front facing seats, two rear facing seats, and a table between them. Seats near the ends of the carriage are side facing, reserved for the injured, elderly and pregnant. A space is set aside to accommodate wheelchairs. Passenger cabins have toilet facilities at one end, and storage for some luggage on the other, as well as shelving above the head to accommodate smaller luggage. There are handholds both above head, attached to seating, and at the ends of the carriage for those who are standing or moving through the carriage while it is in motion. Maps of the rail route are in easy to see places in the carriage, with the average time between each stop on display. Each passenger train is equipped with a dining car where snacks and refreshments can be purchased. Meals are available on longer journeys.
48: possible Railway Station Architecture The key design principle for the stations is for them to be welcoming. Comfortable aesthetics are pursued, well lit, warm colours, taking advantage of allowing as much natural light in as possible. People waiting for their train should be covered and protected from rain and wind while waiting. Lots of plant life.
49: possible Railway Station Artworks (Write-In)Each station has artwork of picturesque and important nearby locations relating to that stop, along with tourist information in relation to them. Space is also set aside for local artists to do what they will.
50: use vending machines and food you can bufsy at the station instead of dining cars.
51:turn the stations into shopping centers if the traffic volume is large enough
52:each gare get a designated art style
53:having draisine would probably be usefull
54:what type of
propulsion?,steam,benzene,kerosene,gasoline,Petrol-electric locomotives,Diesel,diesel-mechanical,Diesel-electric,Diesel-hydraulic,gas turbine,Wood Gas Generation,Direct current,electric;spring,Alternating current, Battery-electric, Fireless, Atomic-electric, Fuel cell-electric or Hybrid locomotives?
55: what size for our trains, we could make the small calssic ones but we could also make
large ones with two floors with two rows of cabins on each side and a central aisle in the middle
56: decided on the ticket system or if it's completely free
57: presence or not of controller/steward, their roles and equipment
58:the level of security/monitoring in the station and train
59: use IT derived technology for the automated doors on the trains
60 :safety systems, fire extinguisher, emergency alert handles, emergency door/window opening system (hammers, mechanical handle), indication panel, etc.
61: make train bikes friendly, whether with a dedicated wagon (see "Stuttgart rack railways bike" for an example),having a part of the normal wagon where you can leave your bike or just by making it possible to bring your bike on the train
62: having fountains for humans and pets
63: encourage buying locally wherever possible, set up stands for local food places to set up shop
hope someone will find it usefull
64: parking and stables
