Hello Everyone,
This build has a a few improvements added around Dispatch Manager and Passenger Line, based on feedback from an earlier build. Dispatch Manager now has an option to list Passenger Lines and now has two new columns, Loco and Product.
Passenger Lines now can show a Trackpath and be assigned its own colour when selected in Passenger Line Window.
In addition to several other minor tweaks and fixes, there's a fix for the random junk data being added to route & session saves. Please mention it here if you continue to encounter it. There is also a known issue with assets sometimes rendering below the ground, and is currently being investigated, no need to bug it - but if you do encounter it, please comment here and mention if the route is HDT or not, and what type of asset/s were rendered below ground (may require toggling on transparency F9).

Known Issues:
- This build lacks precache shaders. Stuttering and small freezes during first loads of routes is to be expected as well as longer initial load times. 'Compiling Shaders' can be seen top of the screen during initial runs and slow performance is to be expected during this process. This process is slower in this build and may take longer than expected
