    is it too late to get a refund does anyone know? bought it day 1, first few runs were ok, but the more you play it you realise how totally unplayable it is. between the 350 brakes that just don't work, the AI SPADs, the crashes etc, it's totally broken. how on earth was this released?

    Think this may have mentioned earlier, had a TPWS emerg brake approaching Wolves station entry signal at red, going north, into plat 1. 99% sure I was going less than 15mph, may be worth checking what this is set at? Maybe it triggers at 10mph?
    Still haven't experienced any AI spads as reported above, played a lot of services now. Are these just occuring for consoles?
    Signalling all looks good to me, all approach controlled stuff seems to be implemented realistically, which is great news.

    Might be an Xbox problem. Haven’t had any Spads or crashes on PS5.
    Obvious issues with announcements and layers aside it runs fine

    No, I've had an AI SPAD on PC. They seem to be around the 6-8am and 5-7pm periods from the reports I've seen.

    Just ran service 1H14 Birmingham New Street to Manchester Piccadilly with the Voyager and aside from the elephant in the room that is blurry textures (that started off fine at New Street then went bad in the tunnel, but briefly went ok for a few seconds at some point before Smethwick Rolfe Street, at Wolverhampton and several points between Stafford and Crewe) but the Voyager had no passengers between New Street and Wolves, and none at all the front two coaches.

    Just did a 323 run from Brum to Wolves which was much better. Perfectly fine up until Dudley Port where I noticed the guages and labels for the buttons had gone blurry, as had station signage at Tipton and Cosely (didn't check it at Dudley Port). The exterior of the train, and from what I could tell everything else (I accidentally picked a night run) except a 350 passing by between Cosely and Wolves (which my train was fine at) was fine

    Just ran a 350 service (1U51) from Stafford to Crewe, and whilst hard to tell due to night (thanks Journey Mode), I'm pretty sure there was no blurry textures, but I did notice the train numbering is messed up;
    • Pause menu said /1
    • In cab stickers said 350 2xx (can't remember sorry)
    • Outside said 350 329

    Going through regular timetable it shows under /3

    (sorry for the slight spam btw)
