Warning in top right corner of screen while driving?

Have no idea what this is and have never seen it before. A box appears in the top right corner while driving. In the box, there appears to be a rocker switch, a button that you can push, and a black circle with a red X in the middle of it. What is this, why did it appear, and why have I never seen this before? How do I keep it from coming back?
 
It also says something about an "AWS Warning" when I press the button or press the rocker switch, but it never disappears.
 
If I remember correctly, adding the AWS rule and then going into it and setting it to passive removes the sunflower but I'm not at my PC at the moment so can't check. There is a way to hide it though.

Well, new layout and that stupid thing is back on. I tried what worked before, but it is not working now. Running 2022PE. Any ideas on how to get this ignorant thing off of my screen?
 
Anybody? And what causes this to be displayed.....is it a consist, a building, what? I have searched and there is NO info on this annoying thing.
 
It's AWS, causes by locos that have that function. What loco are you driving? What route are you using? Is it an actual session or just a quickdrive session? As my post above, you'll need to add the session rule and then set it as passive to remove it.

I did add it and then set it to passive, but it is still there. As for the loco, I have 45 running right now and 5 or 6 sitting on sidings. This is my own route.
 
All the locos are under manual control. And it doesn't matter what one I am sitting in, that AWS is still displayed. How can I tell what loco or locos is causing it?

OK....new twist on this thing. I switched a few locos to American....still same problem. However, since this is a route that I am still building (adding trees, animals, etc.), I found this out: If I save the route, exit the game, and then go back in, that box stays off....not seen. However, as soon as I stop driving and go into Surveyor 1 or 2 and then go back to driving, the AWS box comes right back. Save and exit and go back in, no AWS box until I go into one of the editors again. Weird. Any ideas now?

Stagecoach: I have tried checking Passive and Passive with HUD hidden....neither one works. I have tried changing them and exiting Trainz and even rebooting Win11. All good until I go into either editor.
 
Stagecoach......there are NO signals used on this route...none. I build routes quite differently from most of you: I am reliving my younger days (50 years ago) when I had 6 trains running at one time on a home layout......about 140 square feet on 3 levels. All I want to do is watch scenery and other trains go by.
 
I still can't get that stupid thing to stay off of the screen!! If I go into Driver and just stay in the cab of one loco, it stays off. But as soon as I change to a different loco, back on it comes. Can somebody please tell me how to get rid of this annoying thing??
