HH: Overspeed with LZB - simulated whistleblower warning!

[trainsmit]

Hamburg-Hannover has LZB facilities, but I hope the "feature" to be described here is not prototypical.
The experiment was done with a HH BR101 + 8 IC coaches.
Keyboard Y and C allows adjustment of the max speed, which also enables automatic speed control.
The safe choice, when LZB is active is to to let (letter) Y move the handle all the way, to let LZB select the right setting.
LZB is then active. It has the drawback of leaving the train speed unrestricted when the LZB coverage ends.
To avoid that: leave the handle untouched and LZB will (where line equipped) set the correct limitation, BUT note the following:
LZB is then is passive mode, and you must control train speed yourself.
When you get a little above the set speed an alarm will sound, to remind you to throttle down.
Do that, then when the alert silences reapply full throttle before you are below line speed!
I'll leave the conclusion to the reader. Please do not shoot the messenger!
Let's just say the drive is likely to end prematurely with a "Game over".

As a side issue: can you keep the timetable (career) schedule with LZB enabled?
I have tried to adjust to a real passenger train timetable, supplied by db-netz.de (Which by the way also cover most UK passenger services as well as most of the European continent.) I love it! Provided the line is free, I find the real DB timetables can be kept - if you're into it!

Again: I hope this feature is NOT prototypical - if it is: Please do not write it here, but write to your national railway authority.
