    Good simulator games?

    SimSig should work just fine under Crossover, make sure you've got the HTML renderer or whatever it's called.

    New to MS Train Sim - some help needed!

    MS Train Simulator isn't on Steam. Did you mean Rail Simulator 2018 by Dovetail Games?

    Simsig

    I think it's shift+right click, or go into F3 options and disable "right click cancels route", then it'll just be a right click away.

    Train driver 'freewheels' broken down train 13 MILES to London Euston after a power cut

    Although it's downhill from Carpender's Park, it's uphill to get there from Bushey. Not sure how he managed that bit.

    SimSig free games

    Yes there are free simulations available, a lot of the old classics have remained free such as King's Cross and Peterborough. Paid sims should have a 15 minute trial so you can check things out.

    Infrastructure that will never be used again

    Hardly large amount, just the bridge over the Aire at the back of Graingers Way, not much usable land there.

    Manchester Trams refuse to accept round £1 coins.

    Yes it does, you can't use it without authenticating against the chip. It doesn't require real-time authorisation however.

    IPFAS out, Penalty Fare Services in (July 17th 2017)

    I see no evidence they've paid for SSL, that's just a generic certificate being offered on port 443 as SNI hasn't been configured to offer the correct one. Looks like quite the mickey mouse affair, I've seen phishing scams with better websites.

    IPFAS out, Penalty Fare Services in (July 17th 2017)

    No they don't, it's sending one for "*.secure-secure.co.uk" - which doesn't seem to be an actual website, just one provided by GoGetHosting - which also looks rather unprofessional.

    IPFAS out, Penalty Fare Services in (July 17th 2017)

    But not committed enough to get an SSL certificate so people can submit and receive things securely. Surprised that's not a legal requirement.

    Virgin Media

    Doubt you have 200MB, I think only Hyperoptic offer that, you've probably got 200Mb instead. Have you looked to see if you can get fibre to the cabinet or fibre to the premises, that should be pretty fast.

    Incident at Wandsworth Common 07/08/16

    Possibly indeterminable, there was no CCTV and I doubt the eye-witnesses were paying that much attention to him.

    Computers; what if the railway was attacked?

    Yes, Linux is used worldwide for many things, support is far cheaper and the system is more secure out the box. Also on the subject of attachments, that's not how this one spreads, it looks for SMB based file shares and goes in that way.

    Computers; what if the railway was attacked?

    I don't recall many MS OS releases being that great on initial launch, XP was awful until SP1 and even then SP2 and SP3 made it far better, Windows 95 had 3 different releases, 98 had a second edition, only ME (I think) never had a major update.

    Computers; what if the railway was attacked?

    The other main issue was the whole "Vista Capable" shambles, with machines that would run XP reasonably well being shipped with Vista, but not having the CPU/Memory to run it decently. I did run Vista for a while (until 7 came out), and with 4GB RAM and a decent CPU it was reasonable. I loved...

    Ah yes, that would make sense.

    Computers; what if the railway was attacked?

    And how many years have to pass from the last available security updates before it's considered wise to physically disconnect it from the public internet?
