    Hi all,
    Are there any UK routes on this platform which are non blurry, have JT routes which suffer WCMLS which suffer and a few more. Running with layers on all routes as I am loathe to remove any because this is what this game is advertised to do... run routes with layers enabled.

    Thank You

    Regards

    Older routes or routes that a light on traffic. Medway Valley is a recent release that performs very well for example

    Glossop line, SEHS, Medway valley, BCC without the BR170 add-on, Suffragate line and most likely more

    I recently tried East Coastway Remastered and it also seemed to not blur and we had all the layers

    From my experience on the Playstation 5 - Island Line 2022, Midland Main Line, East coastway, Tee's Valley, Northern Transpenine, Medway Valley, Glossop Line, Birmingham Cross city (without the 170 timetable)

    the rest will come and go (the blurries i mean) - i know you are after Xbox, but a lot of the older ones were also solid on my PS4 so should be prety good bets on an Xbox

    I tested on PS5 Pro Preston - Carlisle this week, everything needed is installed, but I turned off the two static layers of the parked cars in Steamtown and Kingsmoor and turned off Substitutions, so only the original Class 87 and the original Mk3 and Mk2 cars ran, the Class86/2 package was empty in terms of functionality and it did well. The direction Preston - Carlisle without blurring and the opposite direction slight stripes at Mk3 in Oxeholme, that then immediately returned to normal and then in Preston slightly the whole locomotive and the stripes of the wagon, all just zooming into the model with the camera.
    But there may be situations with the busiest traffic and it may be otherwise, that cannot be contained relatively easily

    Depends on who you ask.
    It's kind of like asking "what car can drive nice?"
    Well almost any car CAN drive nice in some situations.
