Sent off support email. Hopefully we'll get a quick response. £11.99 of goods I can't currently use.

just so everyone is aware .ncf files are created by steam itself they are nothing to do with rsc so its not a case of rsc forgetting to include one file in this case it really is steams fault

Did you get a response?
I got one from the email I sent on the 20th asking which 67 I'd bought and did I have WCML installed as the scenarios require it? (which they dont).
Sent reply back about mid-day and havent heard anything since.
I suppose they could have contacted steam and realised where the problem lies, and it may auto fix itself this evening at the usual steam update time

I will back that up, I now have the relevant .ncf files for my 325 and 33, but they still do not work, and bring up the same errors as before, I have done the verify cache ect routine, bu to no avail, this whole thing is just one more reason why wherever possible, I don't use steam for my games. it just complicates the whole process....

I hope I'm not being patronising, but you have cleared the blueprint cache from the 'tools' option on the game's main menu have you? This clears the game's cache of what rolling stock you have installed, and is completely different to the 'verify cache' through Steam (which checks that files on your disk that Steam 'owns' are present and not corrupted / modified).

It was removed from sale to make it completely separate from the Kuju folder meaning that new users of railworks to be able to use the it :) As for its return we are currently working on the J94 so I cannot say when it will be back
