    On the Azuma, when you have the Normal HUD on, I can see the speed at say 120 and a limit at say 125 MPH (indicated by the white dot with the red border)
    If you switch to Simple HUD, HUD speedo now only goes to 100MPH and a indicated speed limit of 100 MPH. Is that intentional?
    This was observed in timetable mode on service 1B81

    It's not limited to ECML. Köln-Aachen speedo goes to 175km/h while the top speed on this route is 250km/h.

    As someone who has worked in the software (not games) industry for more years than I dare say, I'd love to see the requirements and test specifications for some of these feature, not to mention code reviews for code being committed. DTG do some superb work with this product. But I'm frankly aghast at some of these bugs. I understand complex bugs will lurk and are hard to find and inevitably come out of the woodwork when you get thousands of hands on it. But something like is the HUD displaying the speed/max speed correctly in all modes really should be spotted.... or perhaps I'm over simplifying it! That was my first timetable service in the Azuma and I knew something was wrong immediately. And I am the most unobservant person ever!

    I would hope someone spotted it, considering it's one of the key things you look at.
