Probably the next advancement in RC electronics will be to scale down all the R/C "guts" super tiny/ultra compact to the delight of the dyed-in-the-wool true-scale fanatic.

Houston, we have a "space" problem!!

In theory, however, having simple interior images (maybe holograms???) behind the window glass should still be cheaper than having a detailed painted 3D cab dash, steering wheel, driver figure, gear shift lever, brake pedal, clutch, gas pedal, fan, CB radio and seats.

On scale model passenger cars for trains, simple silhouettes of people are common in windows.

How about custom decals of cab interiors and people figures that could be inserted and applied right behind the window panes?
