    When setting off from Trenton the next signal is an limited clear as per the below

    However the incab signaling is stating Approach Medium.

    The speed limit is correct for the Limited Clear (45mph) but not for an approach medium (would be 30mph).

    It's kinda weird but Approach Medium 45 is actually the conforming cab signal aspect aspect to Limited Clear. Once the your head end reaches the interlocking exit track circuit it should give a clear aspect. This messed me up for a while too. Not sure if you're aware of this, if you are I apologize lol, but here are the 9 aspects the cab signals can display. In game there's also a stop signal cab aspect as well. So it can't display all the fixed wayside signal aspects, so every signal has a conforming cab signal aspect.

    CLEAR 150

    CLEAR 125

    CLEAR 100

    CAB SPEED 80

    CAB SPEED 60

    APPROACH MEDIUM 45

    APPROACH MEDIUM 30

    APPROACH

    RESTRICTING
