Another thing I forgot yesterday: in dispatcher mode, the signal box descriptions, specifically the interlocking technology. For the electronic/computer-based interlockings, it currently reads something like ‘Art der Geräte: Elektronische Geräte’. It should be something like Stellwerkstechnik: Elektronisches Stellwerk or maybe Art des Stellwerks: Elektronisches Stellwerk. Not sure what it currently says for relay or mechanical interlockings, but those should be Relaisstellwerk and Mechanisches Stellwerk respectively.

It’s a Steam builtin feature. F12 by default, if I’m not mistaken

Ahhh so that’s what it does! I guess Feldschwächung would be the most appropriate term?

Trying to drive the EU07, I’ve found that hovering over switches and buttons tells me what each and every one does – but with the various status lamps in the cab, I have no idea what they tell me. It would be nice to be able to hover the mouse over a lamp that is on to get a popup hint, just like for controls.

Translation of railway-specific terminology is good – Hauptluftleitung, Schnellbremsung, Fahrdienstleiter, Triebfahrzeugführer, etc. Well done. However, the air compressor is in railway German generally called by the archaic term Luftpresser, and there’s quite a few more issues in other places. E.g. addressing players as Sie (Wussten Sie schon?) rather than Du, or translating the ‘UI’ settings category as ‘Schnittstellen’ (correct would be Oberfläche). And is that an Umformer (rotary converter) in the locomotive providing auxiliary power, or an Umrichter (semiconductor-based)? Other Germans, feel free to add on to this.

Yeah, my connection also flaked out a lot.

Since the game uses the Unity engine anyway, which is, you know – well-known for having broad platform support – I don’t see any reason why there shouldn’t be a proper native Linux/SteamOS version.
