    Perhaps this is a better topic for the suggestions but I recently got into driving on German routes with the safety systems on and I’ve found the little HUD prompts on the top right of the screen to be really helpful when understanding the signal speeds.

    I was thinking, why couldn’t something like this be implemented for the US routes and ATC? I like to drive with the minimal hud, sometimes in the exterior camera, and there’s no way to know what your reduced signal speed is unless you jump back into the cab.

    A simple pop up on the hud just like the PZB ones would be wonderful, a small yellow box that says restricted with a “speed limit: 30mph” written next to it. The displayed speed would change as it does in route, and then when the signal speed goes back to the track speed, the hud pup up goes away just like on the German routes.

    This could of course be toggled on or off for those who don’t want it. Thoughts?

    I also think the prompts notifying when it's safe to release as well as the acknowledge for the 1000hz and 500hz magnets would have been great in the older German routes like Rhein Ruhr Osten. The prompts definitely help out when operating the trains with pzb/lzb and sifa enabled
