Lovely! I like the separation of the sector. Admittedly, I wouldn’t really know much about how trains would work as a sector, but the way you’ve divided it makes quite a bit of sense. Going by a similar logic, I suggest The Terminal as capitol for the Aircraft sector?
Now I need to figure out how Lita lives in the Pale. I imagined her living in The Micro, but I’ve had her run into Katja a few times. I haven’t really expanded on her job though, so it’s completely manageable in that regard! The River still runs close to the Pale’s border, so that all works for me. Hurrah!
As for a District Gesture, I’ve been trying to look into American Sign Language (specifically technology) to see if there is something simple, yet dramatic, that could work for D3. I’ve been having trouble with the movie files though, and it is now much past my bed time (early start Monday - uuuuugh). Looks like I’ll have to further investigate later.
I second the Terminal.
I like the ASL idea, I had a little look myself and found:
Knowledge. Kinda subtle.
Persevere One of the only ones I found where the sign extended out from the chest.
Just ideas, so everyone keep looking as well. :)
[OOC]
What about the Knowledge sign, proceeded by an upturned palm.
So, a quasi-salute tap, palm facing down, followed by a second quasi-salute tap, palm down. Then as the hand extends away from the head, it is turned upwards. Making it a little less salute-y? And almost like ‘here is my knowledge, I impart it to you’?
I was going to suggest doing knowledge as it is in the video, but with 3 taps instead of two. Keep the hand at a diagonal to the ground, but not parallel to the face (you don't want to look like you're slapping yourself). Then have the hand down to your side instead of flying out like a salute. Also representative of a shyer, quieter district.
the "weapons" district
I have two ideas with two different thoughts for names for the weapons area:
Snow - because the area would likely have large amounts and long seasons of snow. Would be known for the bitter cold in the winter. Also, the labs/factories would probably be stark white and the scientists could wear white lab coats over their black work wear. Also named because of the close attention President Snow pays to it and the direct oversight of the capitol in that area.
Caps - Literally from mountain caps, often white, that would be visible from several miles away. Could also be descriptive of the sounds of gunfire and explosions from a distance. Also, who doesn't wear a hat in the winter? Could also be symbolic for being the Capitol's hat, kept close enough yet can be thrown away at any minute.
Also, I've put forth black as a kind of standard work colour for D3 - meaning that out of working hours people try to wear other colours because it's their only option. The peacekeeper white would stand out a lot, and it would also contrast the people with the white white district. Well, that's what I think, but I think I remember you had different thoughts? Let me know :)
I'll get rid of the "the" it is a little weird!
Also, I like the idea of black, or at least lots of dark colors. I hadn't thought much about clothes, only mentioning a white lab coat i think, but i agree the factories and buildings would have a lot of white. I've described Fie's labs as sterile and white. But the black clothing for workers would be great, and I like the idea that if you could get your hands on something that wasn't dark, or wasn't even black, it would be a prized possession you would wear whenever possible.

There are always the districts to the south that we didn't give a purpose to. That and the districts are very large, so we could always turn the micro unit into something that encompasses that and software/hardware.
Also, I had envisioned that almost all districts had their version of the pods. genius idea...

Trains: Locomotives Sector? I’ve been using that a bit, I think. And I’ve designed a possible map.

Love it! As usual great names! I will update the stuff below shortly.
A Start
Places:
The Pale : The more affluent community of District 3 that houses the Mayor, Victors Village, Government buildings, and the merchants who supply them. While the merchants there are by no means wealthy, they usually live better lives than those in the rest of the district. Everyone in this area lives in standalone houses.
Nails : Neighborhood in the Northernmost section of D3. Named such because of the citizens’ hard work in the factories building small goods for the Capitol and the beating their hands’ take. “It is not unusual to see fingernails on the line.” Families here are granted stand-a-lone homes, but all single people live in “the Pods”.
Station: (in the Train Sector) Named for the massive station seen at the intersection of the tracks. This is where trains come for repairs, and it’s also used as a storage facility for functioning trains. North are two blocks of offices, where those who control the ‘automatic’ train systems for all of Panem work. These are also offices for those who design new trains. East of these are the pod blocks for those who work in the station, and those who work in the offices.
Steam: (In the Train Sector) These are the factories where new trains are built. Named for the funnels of smoke rising from the many chimneys, and the steam that often rises from the nearby river due to the heat from the hundreds of generators which are located on the riverbank. There are pod blocks here for the factory workers, as well as less comfortable housing for the dirt poor.
Terminal : Capitol of the aircraft sector.
Blackout : Unused land in the south. Possibly old factories that were abandoned as new technology was developed. No one is known to live or travel there. This area and it's mystery tends to be fodder for old people to tell horror stories to the young. Is also a threat from parents "Don't make me banish you to Blackout."
Caps - The weapons development and factories are located in the mountainous sector of the district, just south of the Pale. Literally named from mountain caps, often white, that would be visible from several miles away. Also descriptive of the sounds of gunfire and explosions from a distance. There is quite a mix of residents here. Some of the best minds in Panem are trapped here by the geography and Capitol responsibilities. While a large region, the citizens here do not interact often with each other, or with many people at all.
Names Needed for : The unused districts to the south.
District Vocabulary and People:
The Pods : Most easily compared to our apartment style or dormitory living. Usually full of young adult citizens who have not yet married and started a family. The buildings are normally made out of old factories no longer being used for their original purpose.
Mayor Drake
Wiress
Beetee
People Needed : Capital Representative, Stylist and Prep Team?
The people of D3
In sectors where work is strictly confidential, D3 citizens mostly keep to themselves. Known for their great intelligence, they usually start work in the factories in their region and work up to foreman positions. Those who show increased intelligence are usually tasked with developing and testing of new technology. Citizens of the transportation districts are often bolder and louder than those from weapons and small goods. These citizens have spent a considerable amount of time outdoors when compared to their fellow District citizens and often are granted more opportunities for socializing due to the teamwork required to build the large machines. Despite their close proximity and regular communication with the capitol, D3 children are not career tributes and do not train for the Hunger Games. Panem citizens consider the D3 tributes only hope to be their intelligence, as they are usually weaker than the other tributes and lack experience with any sort of weapon normally available in the games.
Families normally have 2 working parents and kids are often left to be tended by the elderly or older siblings. Children are in school until the age of 18. Education is taken very seriously and the children are expected to learn and retain a great deal from an early age. As soon as one turns 18 they are assigned to a factory for work.
People in D3 are usually dressed entirely in black, especially while working. Clothes of varying colors are often reserved for special occasions and are never word to work. The only people to wear white are Peacekeepers and those in the Pale whose standing puts them above the Peacekeepers (Mayor, etc.).
Architecture/Geography/Inter-District Transport:
Small communities dot the lush regional landscape. A community is usually centered around a factory, with the majority of its inhabitants working in the factory. Depending on size, there are often merchants living in the community to sell supplies and a few luxury items. In the more mountainous regions, homes and factories are often a great deal smaller and more spread out than elsewhere. These factories are often tucked into the mountain and the environment is allowed to grow up around them as camouflage. All citizens of D3 experience harsh winters and beautiful Autumns. Spring and Summer are fairly mild. The district is connected by a remotely operated train system that transports goods and supplies around the district as needed in the factories. This train is usually unmanned and people do not often travel on it. ((I’m thinking something like the L in Chicago)). It is used once a year to get the citizens to the Pale for the Reaping.
Need a district gesture: I can’t remember if the books have one for D3, but I know that D12 had one when Katniss volunteered for Prim at the reaping.
