Birmingham Cross City & Southeastern High Speed - Adjusted Signal Approach Release From Red

As someone who's worked for several of the UK rail companies since BR, I loved the fact that DTG added approach control from red signalling to TSW3. It is just a little too restrictive.

The game's default behaviour forces you down, and to remain at approx 15mph for some distance before the signal steps up, sometimes bringing you to a near stand.

Most locations on routes I signed with 15mph-25mph turnouts and approach release signals will (when the route is cleared) check you down then release with a route indicator around 180-200yds before the signal, if you're driving to a defensive driving policy of 20mph over the AWS magnet.

I've altered the timed track circuit length so it behaves more like my experiences.
