    It would be nice to see the train's calling points directly from the Journey and Service Selectors. This way, players can know if they'll be operating a slow or fast service and can know which stations to stop at, without having to turn on the HUD.

    Good idea , it’s frustrating when I spend 2 minutes loading up a service on BML to then find out it’s a service that I don’t want to play

    Indeed. That large space for descriptions in the menu screen needs filling with more useful information. BML has focused the need for this clearer than ever.

    Exactly my issue. I wanted to find a slow, stopping service, and everything I loaded up was a Semi-Fast. That's what prompted me to create this suggestion.

    I agree. More information like Calling Points, Platform Numbers, and more would be a highly appreciated addition to the game, in helping the player decide what they would like to do.

    I would definitely back this idea. Although TSW2 has the length of time it takes to complete a scenario or timetable run, it would be nice to see what stations we are stopping at and when.

    I thought our diy scenarios tell us how many stops we’re making, so it would be strange to leave the actual game content devoid of this.
    Would be a really useful addition.
