North London or Mildmay line
Hi all, does anyone know how I can get the Simsig North London Line as it doesn’t appear to be available on the website. But it clearly exists as I can find videos of it on YouTube. Any help much appreciated!

The North London Line sim is now obsolete (quite a few sims are obsolete), & no longer available to download, it's still up on youtube as they've not taken down the video, & just because you can fins videos on youtube doesn't necessarily mean the sim is still available either.

My thought is that as Simsig is a game (and not something for railway industry use), then there is no need to withdraw simulations just because they are obsolete: just flag them as 'obsolete', with limited support - if people want to play at running yesterday's railway, let them.

Their are many reasons why obsolete sims are completely withdrawn, not being compatible with the system will be the main reason.

Quite a few of these obsolete aims are so old they were published as .exe files, which are most certainly not compatible with the current loader setup!

All bar one of the obsolete sims are the old .exe format - the relevant documentation page on “why” is here: https://www.simsig.co.uk/Wiki/Show?page=usertrack:faq:obslete

Obsolete Sims

A number of old simulations are currently not available to download, primarily because they are in an obsolete format and, in most cases, the author (in whom copyright may lie) is no longer working as a developer.
