Line selection

After selecting "Drive" on the main screen, the line selection screen appears.

This screen lists the lines that can be played and those available for purchase (grayed out). The basic set contains these 4 lines:

If the line has a microphone icon, it also contains controller announcements.

The "Line data" section contains some information about the highlighted line:

• Sta.no.: Number of stations
• Safety system: The safety system used on the line

The train model used on the line is also displayed, as is the line map.

The "Schedule" field shows the information for the simulated route:

• Type: Type of train used (Local, Rapid, etc...)
