Model Railroading

I was thinking about doing a scenario that's built like a house with different rooms and cities and industries simulating different things in the house... BUT...
I don't know if it's worth it...

Do it if you think its worth it. Its up to you. Not everyone else. If we all didn't do stuff because other people told us not to we'd never do anything innovative.

is it gonna be exactly your house? if I were making it, you'd have lots of rooms and a hallway that all tracks have to go through. Oh and you must have a bath with water in it :D

What if i beat you too it?

This is a great creative idea! Perhaps once you get a concept done (using the default terrain graphics, engines, etc.) a mod could be made to incorporate the differences between a model railroad and a real railroad (different prices, different scales for engines, different terrain, etc.). Even without a full mod I am looking forward to your creative scenario.

This is not a new concept.

Zimmlock, Bluebeetle, Myself and others have done Model Raiload style maps.
