The structural design of this site is based on the LCARS&tm; or "Library Computer Access and Retrievel System" which is the primary computer operating system (OS) of the computers aboard the fictional starships of the Star Trek universe, an intellectual property of Paramount Pictures/Studios. While the basic design is very similar, some specific structural liberties were taken with the design used here, which represents the operating system design used aboard the equally fictional locomotive computers of the Freedom Central's railroad subsidiaries. For further information on this idea, please reference the "LCARS LOS" section in the "Juniata Falls Archives" portion of the site.
In reference to the FC Imagineers!, I first learned of the term "imagineering" from its use by Disney. Since Walt Disney is well known to have been a serious railfan in his own right, the Freedom Central's use of Imagineers! to identify it's own R&D department is in respect and hommage to one of the greatest railfans the world has ever known.
