    They are not on in real life, as far as I am aware.
    They will only be put on in emergencies as they normally are not needed, the train lights are bright enough

    Yep I get that, it does look cool. But I prefer realism over coolness for TSW in most cases :D

    Recently watched a GoPro on YouTube of this route and there are indeed bright white lights at intervals along the entirety of most tunnels.

    And no, they were definitely not reflected light from the hectometer boards.

    It because it a tunnel they don't have the lights on like the London underground. The only time lights are probably on is during engineering work

    Yesterday, I was stuck in an ICE 1 in a tunnel between Hannover and Göttingen (which is part of the route Würzburg-Kassel-Hannover) for two hours.
    So I can now definitely confirm that the lights are turned on, and they were on before we got stuck so that was not the reason.

    I saw that in TSW the lights are there and just not turned on so that could be changed.
    They are so weak in reality, that they don't even emit light to the tunnel (which would probably make the job of adding them easier)

    This route does have lights in the tunnels. Not all of them but most of them.
    You can find cab rides on YouTube that clearly show it.

    I’ve never seen a London Underground tunnel with lights on during normal running.

    Yes and it makes all the difference when driving through. You can judge the gradients and get your bearings.
    Plus it looks really cool.
