Mictlāntēcutli (Castle Wall + U-Bahn)

Mictlāntēcutli
This is the "A-Side" of a pair of puzzles:
A-Side: Mictlāntēcutli (Castle Wall + U-Bahn).
B-Side: Mictēcacihuātl (Castle Wall Delta + Directed U-Bahn).
I hope you enjoy them!
- U-Bahn: draw a loop network through the centers of some (non-clue) cells, which may branch or turn, but may not have any dead ends. A digit 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.
- Castle-Wall: clues inside the grid count the number of cell-edges crossed by the loop network in all indicated directions combined.
Lösungscode: The number of loop segments extending down from each row (except the last). (For the practice puzzle, the solution code would be 3333.)

Very fun! I thought quite tricky in the midsolve with a pretty smooth opener and a clutch U-bahn/ castle wall type hybrid accounting problem to help finish. Really rewarding how the interaction feeds answers to these natural challenge points in the solve. Not too narrow a solve path either. Truly fun. Thank you!

Once again a great hybrid with wonderful logical conclusions :)

Are two disjoint loops allowed by the rules?@sfushidahardy
Reply: No, just one single connected loop network.

Such a pretty puzzle! Perfect difficulty level to keep my interest while also letting me get used to counting like this. Reminded me of my favorite steps from Myxo's Belagerungsturm

This one really made me work—tough but totally worth it. Every aha was earned, and the payoff felt great. Thanks for the challenge!
