Normal Sudoku and Lockout Line Rules apply.
Lockout Lines- Normal Lockout Line Rules Apply. Digits in directly connected Diamonds must differ by 4 or more and may not be repeated on the line. Digits on a line must fall 'outside' the range defined by their diamonds. Line digits may repeat if allowed by other rules.
Clarification.. All Lockout Lines are normal Lockout Lines. The color difference is merely to help define the lines bounce off of each other at the intersections in boxes 4 and 6.

Overall, very nice puzzle! Broke it a couple of times because I didn't put in enough pencil markings, but once I got the hang of it, was indeed fun! :)

Very nice puzzle. I really enjoyed the break-in it was quite a treat really. I got caught up in some odd logic that I had to dismiss because it was absolute non-sense. After that it was a breeze.

That felt like the first lesson of a master class in the science of Lockout Lines. Looking forward to the next one
@Raumplaner. Thank you for that awesome comment. It made my day.
