Thanks for the clarification. I'll let him know that he should be able to download the content, or when he logs into Steam it might even autosync.

I believe that's what he's looking at trying, but I think some of his DLC was direct purchases - he also still has the original DVD installation disk for the application which I think he used before opening a steam account. It's strange as I tested the Fairwater Shunt scenario on the Exeter...

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes I have tried clearing he cache which made little or no difference. I'm not able to the other suggestion as I don't have access to his Steam account. I do need to log in to steam in order to run the application locally, but do so under my account credentials (I...

Long story short, I'm trying to resurrect a friends Dovertail train sim installation after the drive it was installed to got quick formatted by accident. He had several drives in his PC with Windows installed to a 250GB SSD and a 1TB mechanical drive on which all programs were installed to...

This is a general comment, which just goes to show how great the folk here are. If you posted a comment say on a software forum along the lines of "I have knowingly installed a cracked version of the software and want help from those who've paid the full price for the software to give me...

As someone who has a youtube channel which mainly features trains, often taken from platforms I've often wondered about that definition between personal and commercial use. My channel isn't monetised, but given their subscriber count, there are many that would be. As such I've wondered if they...

Just spent an hour or two at Hitchin and it seemed that there was only express services (Hull Trains, LNER and Lumo) that were running north via Peterborough. In the two hours I was there both of the delayed trains north bound terminated at Royston. Taxies were doing a roaring service taking...

Finally managed to get some ASDA Cornflour. Every time I've looked the shelf has been empty, although the Brown & Polson brand next to it was taking up all the available shelf space and never seemed to change form week to week. Not surprising really when the branded product is £3 and the ASDA...

@DarloRich Thanks for opening up. Forums are good for this as it's faceless, so you don't have other emotions to overcome when getting things off your chest. Your post is also inspirational as often CBT and access to other support organisations are deemed a waste of time, or for others rather...

Thanks, Due to that this is around 15 - 20 years since it was conceived it has limited functionality, mainly as the developer was focusing on the device behaving much the same way as a 4 channel DC controller but under DCC operation. There is a Windows application that displays CV settings...

like most people in their 60's we all started our interest in model railways with an oval of track and controlling the locomotive using a rheostat type controller. Then Hornby brings out their zero 1 system where the track remained powered so lighting remained lit even when the train was in the...

I have no connection with the industry, but are these sort of issues a result of having one large central signalling centre that covers nearly all the signalling on the ECML, or would the same issues happen when they had three or four boxes between kings cross and Edinburgh. I believe there was...

Well if typing it out, but not posting helped then it's a positive.
