    I was really hoping the headlights could be improved significantly. They cast a good amount of light in front of them on the scenery, but when approaching a train you can see the light on the ground before you can see the headlights on the locomotive. This is so unrealistic, especially when considering that the signal lights in the distance look so good - could Dovetail not use the same method for the headlights? Currently they are little white circles, no lens flare or anything. Headlights should be seen on oncoming locos from a long way off, not when they're nearly on top of you.

    DTG simulates the headlights, thats why you judt see a yellow-ish dot, if youre on pc you can download some amazing lightmods which makes the trains looking better! I hope one day DTG will stop with their way of doing headlights, 628 had a bit of "shape" on the headlights, Nothern headlights are improved too!

    The more I read the more I wish I were on pc. I like my 85” 4K tv though. Very immersive and much more like the cab view in real life. I find pc screens far too small. And as an older player I prefer the PS5 console
