U-Bahn with Cages
(Published on 26. April 2023, 23:39 by wooferzfg)
This puzzle was created by Jakhob and wooferzfg, and it is a variant of U-Bahn.
If you are unfamiliar with U-Bahn, here is a guide that covers the core logic.
Draw a loop network through the centers of some cells, which may branch or turn, but may not have any dead ends.
A clue outside the grid indicates how many times the corresponding line shape (i.e. a cross, branch, straight line, or turn) appears in the corresponding row or column, irrespective of the line shape's rotation.
Within a cage, any cells that are visited by the loop network must have the same line shape, irrespective of rotation. Different cages may have different line shapes, and cages may be empty.
Solution code: For each column except the last, from left to right, the number of lines leading to the right from that column

I have solved nearly all the subways on the portal, but this definitely takes the prize for the best start.
