Transparent holographic window inserts

That would be cool, could possibly do away with an interior altogether and still make it look real

 

I have maybe 8 passenger cars needing interiors & figures, the cost is overwhelming.

Sure would beat the silhouetted Windows. Seems like all you would need is whatever the window size is if it could be done. That could be a whole new field for that developer if stock interiors could be made up. Interesting concept.

I just spoke with Mark Bay of Zebra Imaging and he said their holographic images require a light source. Overhead lighting in passenger cars illuminates holographic film on the floor of the car and the image jumps up. So the lights need to be on, the room lighting needs to be low and the train needs to be running below eye level. I can imagine all sorts of Halloween and Christmas-themed scenarios here. Zebra Imaging also does holographic panoramas, so imagine the back wall of your layout with a 3D image of whatever village, industrial site, or scenic vista you wish as a backdrop.

 

Mark said he would consult with his coworkers regarding the feasibility of the in-car hologram, which, if it works, would cost about $30 per 20" car.

 

I'm still looking for something in a keyhole holograph, where you put your eye up to a window and "see" the car interior.

 

I think it would be ideal for structure interiors.
