What luck I happened on the 80% off as well

:grab:
If you watch the RSC video advertising the sale, you'll notice that London-Faversham is shown as 50% off. Makes me wonder if the 80% off was an error on somebody's part?

I bought London Faversham in the sale and it seems to have installed ok. I have played the two tutorial scenarios, but when I run the free roam at St Pancras, there are no trains in the station. Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Ok not going too well here.

Decided to go for the Class 87 (pleased to see the fix for the windscreen issue just released). Initially my usual payment card was rejected but after a couple of further attempts it went through ok and I have a purchase receipt. What I have not got as yet is the class 87 - no download whatsoever although it does now appear in my collection screen.

I have tried a file verify but that does not currently appear to be doing anything at all - to be honest and on the relatively few occasions I have used it in the past I have found it a bit hit and miss.

Anyone any ideas? - otherwise I suppose I will just have to wait a bit until the furore of the sale has died down and perhaps the Steam servers are operating more reliably.

I hope this gets sorted soon as there are one or two other items I may go for but reluctant to do so at the moment.

That's odd - I also did a verification twice as the Consolidation does not seem to be there.

Also missing my Alco RS11 and by GE shunter. Wonder if others have missing stuff as well

I also have a problem after buying the Consolidation, shows in my collection, but isn't selectable and the scenarios aren't listed.

Since I am also missing the GE-44 tonner and the the Alco Rs11 sent in a support ticket. Will not be able to test out my other stuff until tomorrow except the Class 87 which is working.

For the missing content, Start up railworks to see if it kick starts it. The servers are taking a hammering, Or Verify, Or find the .acf files and delete them (Think thats what they are called, can't check as not on desktop) to kick start the download.

None railworks.

Just got myself Metro:Last light as finally a price i would pay + on flash deal. Got gifted Age of Empires 2 HD also made 10p from selling a double of the bioshock infinite card, only need 5 more to complete the set :P

I have the same problem - all I have are road vehicles passing by outside - not a train in sight!

I haven't even got that! Do have a look at my thread on Faversham Class 395.
