• Accurate track geometry and clearances: Deep-tube tunnels have tight clearances and curved platforms—models must respect these to avoid clipping and visual errors. Track gradients, vertical curves and platform lengths should match prototypical data for believable operation.
• Correct signalling and protection: Different lines use different signalling systems. Some central sections employ ATO with Automatic Train Protection; others use traditional color-light signals or conductor-operated systems. Accurate route files implement these behaviours through custom scripting or compatible plugin logic to reproduce braking profiles, safety overlaps and permitted speeds.
• Rolling stock fidelity: Authentic traction/braking performance, door operation, cab instrumentation, and driver controls are essential. The feel of acceleration, regenerative braking (where present), and the handling of sanding, wheel-slip or adhesion changes (e.g., in autumn leaf fall) enhance realism.
• Stations and urban context: Realistic station architecture, platform furniture, signage (roundels, fonts), and passenger models bring immersion. Ambient sounds—PA announcements, station tones, tunnel rumbles—create a convincing passenger environment.
• Timetabling and service patterns: Branches, short-turns, and peak-only runs are common on the Underground; route files and timetable definitions should reflect typical service patterns, dwell times and realistic headways.
