Thanks for posting Everyone!

P51 you’re very close to the way I see this technology going .

The train you are running will be real as will derailments, and track wiring. It’s what you see with the augmented-reality display--informative graphics will appear in your field of view, and audio (smell?) will coincide with whatever you see.

Just think ….you are running Your Best Engine on the best layout you have ever seen and the Owner of that layout hands you the Glasses…All of a sudden that layout is populated and Alive.
You would have to run your “Real” Train, using your “Real” Legacy Remote to the best of your Ability.. because Real Train versus Virtual School Bus on the tracks could happen. You would really need to pay attention or you could hurt virtual people and their pets…lol

Hope I Live To See It

Thanks for reading ..
