I think the problem is DRM related, possibly to the IOW Invincible loco which seems to have had a DRM change in the latest IOW update. My conclusion is that the artifacts are not directly related to the lofts/decals/other but manifest themselves in these items when there is a DRM problem, possibly with IOW rolling stock and perhaps a re-skin of Invincible. Try creating a brand new scenario with no rolling stock in it and see if the artifacts still appear.

OK, I tried that on my Montour route which is also affected and I still see the artifacts on the highways. I believe it's one of the highway vehicle shape files, but I do not know which one? If you watch the vehicles on the highway, the rear of the black box is midway between two other highway vehicles, to me that indicates the program is trying to display a shape at that position, but there is something wrong with the shape.

Does it move with the traffic then?

If not, does this point coincide with the intersection of four tiles? (show tile grid)

Yes, the artifact does indeed move with the traffic. So far I've spotted at least two, one black and the second gray.

Sounds like a Car isn't loading properly, Or the Tgpcdx (or what ever those files are) might be broke.

As this seems to coincide with the recent update, I am inclined think that this is still a DRM problem. It might help to check through the traffic spawning blueprint to see where the vehicles for this road are being drawn from and if any of them have been based on Isle of Wight assets.

This is also happening in the Connelsville to Baltimore route. Sometimes it shows as black, sometimes as grey. Moves with traffic along traffic loft. Also has a corrugated flying object. May be related to the traffic installed or since this is the first time I have been able to run with dynamic shadows to that. Think I will turn off dynamic shadow and see what happens.
EDIT: Not shadows or dynamic lighting. Must be with the vehicles in the loft.

I want to ask again what weather are you using? This may be a problem with our wonderful 3D weather. Last time I had this issue I went back to the old weather (right flyout) and it went away.
