    Heading north towards victoria, the 80mph speed board just before purley heading north. There is an issue. On a service i just did before hand it told me it was a 60mph limit coming up, but when i got to it shows 80mph. So on the hud its a limit of 60 not 80 as it should be. So if am doing 80mph its an overspeed when technically its not.

    I think there’s also a speed board near there in the southbound direction that is 60 but the HUD thinks is 40. I’ll have to do a few more runs to find it.

    A couple more, with videos this time, on the 1U41 GX service from Gatwick to Victoria:

    Leaving Gatwick shows the next speed is 90 when it’s actually a 25 speed restriction over the points.



    The northbound fast line approach to East Croydon is very buggy in general.

    Firstly, the 60 at South Croydon is quickly followed by a phantom 60 marker about 20 yards later. (Plus a tree branch is in the way)

    For a moment the next speed marker after South Croydon says that the speed will be 45, but then quickly changes to say 60. The phantom 60 from earlier can lead you to believe that the HUD showing 60 whilst you’re already going 60 is probably fine and another bug.

    The speed actually IS 45, so if you aren’t paying close enough attention, or if you think the 45 flashing up ahead was a bug, then you’ll be approaching the 30 speed restriction at East Croydon way over speed. Plus, after reaching the 30 zone, the next speed shown is actually the 60 that follows the 45 that starts halfway up the platform. The HUD eventually recognises the 45 though once it’s in line of sight.



    It is like this on any trip I take on this track, in journey and timetable mode. Xbox One S
