Please add an option to adjust the HUD background transparency up to making it completely transparent. Or at least reduce both it´s horizontal and vertical sizes. Even if being faded on the right side the main HUD still covers almost half of the screen which is not really required for the information displayed there. In some british rollingstock where dials are on a very low position (see example of IOW route) the banner covers the signals and boards area when you want to see the dials on the cab. As it contains your current instructions and time using F1 to hide it is not a valid alternative. It also covers the speedometer at the american locomotives as it´s placed on top of the cab in some cases, just where the HUD is placed as well. See exaple of GP9. It also happens to the engines in Peninsula Corridor. Cheers
