    Generally I think there is a lot to like with this DLC. It just a shame that it seems like its unfinished in many places, and those small details hurt it when you start digging a little deeper.

    Clearly Reigate needs work but here are some other areas that some may have missed.

    I have attached some screenshots of areas of the route that could do with a little more TLC, there are many more but here is a taster. Hopefully we will see that in some form of update in the future.

    Totally agree, some parts are amazing, but there HAS to be lineside fencing installed which has been a legal requirement since the 19th Century! Also clutter and weeds around the fencing. Was the narrow FOV in the Electrostars an excuse not to bother?

    Oh.. Where's all the buddleia? The stuff gets everywhere.

    Indeed. Its all part of the immersion. Once you've done a run a few times you start to look at the world outside and hope to find nice details. There are many in there. But its wildly inconsistent. The weird thing is that they've shown they can do the details in previous DLC.

    Even SEHS which shared some problems that London Commuter had has some nice touches...

    Which makes things like below all the more frustrating...

    Like you say it just needs more detail generally, a reason to explore the route after all the other great work they have done, of which there is much to be applauded!

    It's nothing new. Sadly, pretty much all routes are like that.

    I believe they assign each route tiles to different people (this person does this part, that person does that part, etc). So I suppose it's either the case of certain inviduals not really caring about the job, or simply having less and more time to certain areas.
