I've placed AWS "perminant" ramps based on scrutinising "cab ride" videos. They do seem a bit sparse on this route but I may have also missed one or two
Can't answer your question on the 350's. I didn't notice any "110mph MU" boards on the 100mph sections.

Edit. Also found a flock of berried sheep. Something has to be done about this

Did you try the AP track tweak patch included in the download, which raises the track by 6cm. (helps to reduce ground texture bleed)
There is some "grass" under the track where you mention (barely noticeable) but it's of no use and will be removed.

I thought it didn't look right, I'll change the "e" for a "ewe"

Absolutely stunning stuff Andy, you are a genius.
Just had a drive on the Bakerloo, anyone know what asset I'm lacking as my tube station headwalls are missing.

Thanks David. but it really would not have been possible without you.
So, you're the one who should get the credit, I just did a bit of tweaking here and there
And yes, I've loved every minute of it (more or less

)

If you also have no mainline tunnel walls, I'd think that you're missing the Woodhead line (the older original one)
