I posted my solution to this problem in another thread. I had bought an item on the Steam marketplace, but the download would not start - I closed and restarted the Steam Client, I attempted a cache verify but that stuck on 0% and wouldn't move, I re-installed the Steam Client, I bought another item from the Steam Store, but nothing would get the downloads to start. In the end I followed a suggestion from a thread on UKTrainsim, and it worked. If you want to read the full thread, it is here http://forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic. ... 0#p1716910 .

This is the solution I posted in the other thread on this Forum:

'Many people have had this problem with new purchases of DLC from Steam recently. I solved mine in the end by deleting Steam\Steamapps\appmanifest_24010.acf, and this has worked for others. When you restart Steam it will tell you it is installing TS2014, but it then appears to do a cache verify, replacing modified files and installing your new DLC.

I reported the problem to Steam Support, but it took over two weeks for them to reply, and the answer was no help - I've sent them another long message about the problem, but I'm not holding my breath.'

My railway photos are back - you can access them from this thread viewtopic.php?f=24&t=21667a . Lots of UK steam and early diesels from the late 1950s and early 1960s.

On the left side of the steam library page where it displays your purchased games you'll see ts2014. Right click it and click properties, it will then open a small window with a bunch of tabs at the top, near the end of the row of tabs you'll see DLC. Click on that and sort the list by installed/uninstalled and you should see the piece of dlc that is checked but not installed, double click the little check mark. It should install, does for me.
