Description

Hi,
love the new feature that shows the path that is going to take.
However when i try to scroll away from the train to check the path the map automatically center around the train and it's hard to do.
Would be nice if we could turn it off and have a button to center to the train only on request.

Another small thing is that it would be even nicer to see the behind-ahead in 2 different colors to have an immediate idea of the direction of the path.

Research direction

Start from the map behavior used when a train is selected and trace how the planned path is displayed. Make selection stop forcing the map to recenter, provide an explicit recenter action, and distinguish the behind and ahead path sections by color. Done means the path can be inspected while scrolling away and the train can still be centered on request.
