    I believe they increased the AP for this route because people complained that the 805 timetable on Birmingham to Crewe gave reduced AP when compared to the standard one. Also, I found that ECML uses the same scoring system which gives 65 AP every 7-8 seconds at around 120mph or every quarter of a mile.
    I haven't paid too much attention to other routes, mainly because AP doesn't bother me that much, but it seems like the sort of thing that could go in a spreadsheet if people are interested. I don't think standardising it across all the routes would be possible now since it would affect everyone's existing scores.

    as I said, I chose the middle ground, aka went 110 and into coasting until 100 :) ... well, similar mistake had been made on Frankfurt Fulda, as far as I remember - no matter if you turned on the tilting stuff and GNT, the HUD still showed the higher speeds if you were driving ICE T, even tho it shouldnt

    some routes that have this kind of stuff going on dont enforce certain stuff that it should, I guess to make it less punishing

    Speaking of which while we are on the subject aren't the freight servics a bit sparse? ,this is not realistic for this route I'm sure

    It’s true—there’s practically no freight to speak of.

    Any ideas on whether this route will get any patch updates or is this as good as it gets?
