I have tried to download Birmingham New Street a few times and it has failed each time. Comes up with network error. Never had this before. Any ideas how to get the down load or do I have to pay for it first.

The site has had a major upgrade, the download/update function of the loader may not work at the moment. this is being worked on, but may take some time to do. It is being worked on, but these thing's take time.

Is there a link on that message along the lines of "Show more details"? As SimSig is a fairly niche product your OS (Windows presumably?) may be blocking the .exe file in case it contains a virus. Clicking on "Show more details" usually gives more options and allows you to bypass this.

I think the issue may be more than that, as I have downloaded a few off the site, and I have noticed one important detail that has not been mentioned, previously when downloading the *.exe from SimSig the *.exe displayed the SimSig icon, many of the sims that have the issues are not displaying the SimSig icon, therefore I can only summarise that the files on site have become corrupted at some point.

Birmingham New Street, Coventry, Central Scotland, Bristol, Carlisle, Derby, Exeter, Gloucester, South Humberside, and Southampton reuploaded - there was a bug in the uploading process when the files reached a certain size which corrupted the data.
