    I have some questions on things of the patchnotes

    • Added Contact Signaller functionality to the Class 377/4
    • Added Contact Signaller functionality to trackside telephones.
    What is this? Possiblity to contact signaller on foot outside the train on platforms stations?

    The in cab contact signaller means that if there is a telephone or radio in cab then clicking on it will activate "contact signaller" the same as pressing tab does
    Same for lineside phones. This simulates a driver getting out of the cab and using a lineside phone for this purpose

    Yes , for me as well. Would be nice to know what changed.

    Also got an update for the 1938 Stock and that isn’t mentioned either, unless it’s related to the Bakerloo updates.

    It’ll be for the coupling of the 375 in London Commuter, so just a minor adjustment to the loco that won’t actually affect it in the SEHS route.
