U-Bahn LITSO (5x6)

This is the last installment in this series of puzzles. I've had a lot of fun with this ruleset, but maybe I should have done the easier ones first in retrospect :P Enjoy!
Rules:
- Draw a totally connected 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.
- Divide the grid into non-overlapping tetrominoes such that every non-black cell is part of a tetromino. Orthogonally adjacent tetrominoes may not be the same shape, regardless of rotation or reflection.
- The loop network must cross the perimeter of every tetromino exactly 3 times. The loop network may pass freely through black cells.
The puzzle:
Solve on Penpa (Includes answer check for the loop only)
Solve on Sudokupad (No answer check)
The five standard tetrominoes, ignoring rotation and reflections:
Lösungscode: From left to right, for every column except the last, the number of loop segments extending right from that column.

First time doing U-Bahn and this was a really good introduction to the genre for me.

It took me some time, but I've finally understood the implications of the ruleset. Now I can go back and try the others!

Lovely and a relatively easy puzzle if done as a dessert! I think the order is quite right - although I still need to do the new main dish! :-D
