Apologies if this has been posted before, but it would be quite nice if starting a service on the Bakerloo line (it's the only TSW2 route I've driven thus far) gave you a minute or 2 to get set up. It feels a bit rushed to get the control key in and enabled, and set the destination board etc.
It's a problem not unique to the Bakerloo Line. With any luck, your service starts with boarding/unboarding passengers, and you have a bit of time to set things up while passengers board/unboard. With most older content, the service starts with a "go to" objective. I found the best way is to simply ignore the clock. Like I did here on Ruhr-Sieg Nord, where I just decided to open the doors, despite having no objective for that.
