Shouldn't need to keep uninstalling/reinstalling if there is a problem...

Can you post your system specs - OS, RAM, CPU, graphics etc...?

Do you get any error messages?

Should be no need to keep re-installing RailWorks. But, you can verify the installation in the following way; From your Steam-client, games Library, right-click on RailWorks, Properties, Local Files, Verify integrity of game cache. This will do a check to see if there are any missing or corrupt files with your RailWorks installation and will reacquire them if so.

After that, launch RailWorks, and before clicking on the "Start RailWorks" button, from the initial RailWorks launcher window first click on the Tool & Docs tab, then click on the "Clear Cache" button.

The above two tips in many cases can help resolve problems with RailWorks not loading or running properly.

Nice post there Kromaatikse. And even with screen-shots.
I may reference that post in future when giving tips to Users of how to do that procedure.
