I've been holding off upgrading to OSX "Yosemite" for a couple of reasons. One is that I don't want to lose the Trains and Classic Trains collections. Two is worrying about what other software might break. Three is that I'm still miffed when Jobs yanked ZFS support from MacOS. One possible solution is Codeweavers Crossover for the Mac - though don't know for sure if it will run the Windoze version of the Kambach software.

There's an odd quirk about the collection software on the Mac - the software will spin its wheels if the computer has been up for a long period of time (meaning months). A reboot will take care of that.

I am simply very disappointed with this. When you buy archival media, you should still be able to view it 5 years later. What about it? Come up with some way to make this happen, guys.
