sorta random, but I appreciate how Wembly takes into account poc actors skin tones when it come to their body suits. I also love how they change the texture of wigs too
Angel creeks LV for comparison
As much as I love Bochum, Wembly is way better at diversity
I'm curious, you said that in OLC some parts of the race course were named after places in the US, but I didn't see anything like that in the reconstruction races (not like I've watched the whole reconstruction as of now XD). Could you give me some examples, please?/nm/nf
This is actually a pretty deep dive topic... all the parts of the track were named, but more for the production's benefit than telling the story to the audience. I can only remember one real name - "Rockville Alley", and while I know I was told the origin story, I can't remember! Other named sections that come to mind are more literal, S bend, Prompt Corner.
The Broadway production leant much heavier into US locations on the set, and Japan/Australia followed suit with replica scenery filling the spaces between the tracks.
The set background photos were used as the background for the production photos, very difficult to untangle the images!
I love the sense of scale, they're racing past a 4' tall palm tree :D
Imagine how amazing it would be to get hold of these photos, proper full scale hard copies where you could make out ALL the details!
I do find it interesting that they decided to go in the opposite direction for Bochum - rather than adding more detail and locations, really dialling up the model railway feel, they went minimalist and conceptual, industrial and let all the focus be on the performers. They flat-out dropped the concept of a "Race across America" for the German production, which was still definitely a feature in Japan.
I don't know, but I suspect that the model railway layout with areas of the track given geographical identities was something always intended, but the 1984 production didn't have the time or budget to really realise the concept. But by the time they took the show to Broadway in 1987, they could lean into it! And then an arena tour? Blank canvas! Absolutely ideal to make a model railway that runs the whole way across America! But they decided not to tell that part of the story in Germany, so, very different direction, much closer to the original.
THE component ever
UUUUAAAAHHH I LOVE JOULE MY FAVE
MY FAVES

Couldnt resist holly jolly christmasy Joule
Coach headcanons:
Ashley is the oldest coach, being made in the 1910s or 1920s. She’s also the only one made of wood, while the other three are all made of steel. Dinah was made in the 1950s, Buffy in the 1960s (but stylistically she keeps up with the times) and Pearl was made in the 1980s (this kind of doesn’t match with her maybe being a pullman car when they went bust in the 1960s but whateverrrrr)
Also even though trains don’t age in a way comparable to humans Ashley still looks quite old. Because I Said So (old women are hot).
Many of Dinah’s insecurities are partially driven by being a dining car. Dining cars were heavy and expensive to run, because they had to have fully functioning kitchens with all of the equipment needed for that as well as plates, and you couldn’t actually sell seats within the dining car, so they suffered during the post-war rail, where the most focus was on costs being cut. Very few diners were made after the 1950s, with buffet cars largely replacing them, and many dining cars were withdrawn/scrapped or converted into other cars (on a side note I don’t like to think that stex trains get scrapped the same way irl trains do. I think they retire, or get converted into other things-especially mto vehicles. I have like this entire vision of how this works but let’s not get sidetracked). I do think Dinah was considered and luxurious when she was first made, but is very aware she’s expensive to run, and most diners she knows have either converted or are out of service, and her quality of service has also declined considerably
I’ve seen other people make headcanons about Buffy being a good cook, I don’t think Buffy can cook. I don’t think she has a kitchen onboard I think she has a microwave and one of those hot water dispensers and that’s about it for things that can make food
I like to think that after amtrak bans smoking cars Ashley converts into a bar car. I think it’s cute because it references Belle the Bar Car (whose design is literally Ashley but alcohol), she gets to be a “semi-diner”/light refreshment car like Buffy, and she also gets to keep being The Vice Car
Pearl’s shed looks like this dressing room
And the pictures on the far wall are of Pearl’s friends

Stex gym/workout headcannons!!
GREASEBALL:
He is the BIGGEST ego-lifter known to man, completely ruins his arms by lifting too heavy, just to impress Dinah.
Rawdogs the lifting with NO warmup. Cuz yk, warmups are for weaklings
Only cardio related thing he does is the rowing machine
ELECTRA:
HATES working out and hates sweatingWalks on the treadmill for three minutes and is convinced they’ve been walking for an hour. (The components manipulate the numbers to make them feel good)
Has a bigass mirror to look at themselves when they do walk on the treadmill
Makes the components take pictures of them while posing in gym attire (bro does NOT work out)
RUSTY:
HELLA sleeperbuild.
Barely works out intentionally, but pulls the coaches and freights around so that counts for something
Pulled a muscle trying to prove to Pearl that he’s strong and cool
CABOOSE:
Sabotages everyone else by adding extra weights when they arent looking, turning up the treadmill, making the floor slippery ect…
JOULE:
Stairmaster.
WRENCH:
Well rounded workouts and a balanced diet, maybe the most healthy of them all in a way
KRUPP:
Works out often, has a well rounded program and tries to hit as many muscle groups as possible
DINAH: pilates mom
RUHRGOLD:
Doesnt really work out other than training for races, he just has that dad strength/build
Can pull twice as many cars as the others but isnt as fast as greaseball and electra
TURNOV:
Badminton training (iykyk)
ASHLEY: Cig and a walk around the train yard
BUFFY
Walks with Ashley
CARRIE:
Has incredibly strong arms from dragging luggage around everywhere
If yall have anything to add, do tell! I’d love to hear. Some of these were conceived during gym class while talking to my friend (Shoutout Wisp)
Just incase people dont look at insta...
Dose this mean Electraboose is cannon...

HORROR TRAIN DESIGN || DAY 20: Elvira: Mistress of the Dark
“Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the most drop dead gorgeous one of all?”
“She’s a highly respected member of the yard, even if she’s a little odd. But aren’t we all kinda strange here? This fiery Firebird is always the flirtatious charmer with a slick tone and charming demeanor, and she looks damn good. But even with that, she’s always one to give an encouraging word and use her own self-confidence to inspire others to be who is most authentically them and make sure they know that they’re incredible no matter what.”
This is a design I STRUGGLED with for the entire process, but honestly? It turned out really good in my opinion! I wanted to pay my good respects to this icon and make sure I did a good job with it, and I hope I did. Obviously it’s heavily inspired by Elvira’s ever iconic Pontiac Firebird with all the fun little details and even the leopard print seats cause I love making animal prints (all of those dots are hand drawn and laid out, no special brush used!).
This train is for sale!!! The bids starts at 10USD but has an auto-buy of 25USD. There will be a 1 week waiting period and whomever has the best offer at the end of this waiting period will be given the unwatermarked version of the design in both a file on Drive and a Discord image after payment. If this guy is not sold by the end of this 1 week period she will be sold at the end of the month in a flash sale. All payments are made through PayPal and bids are made preferably on Discord (silverdgolden), all the ToS stated in my commission sheet apply.
