    I just tried using QGIS to download some normal SRTM (for a possible Trainz or TSC route) and nothing happening at SRTM Downloader screen after entering the bounds of the required dataset and pressing download nothing happens, not even the password authenticator.

    So looks like it's gone for the time being.

    There used to be away of getting the 30m or better SRTM from the NASA site without going through hoops, a FTP style list of the zip files but that also seems to have vanished. Getting harder to source DEM unless you use the relatively low res stuff from the Viewfinder site.

    Just today I downloaded three new SRTM files from the site below and can confirm they are working perfectly for creating new tiles in the TSW editor. It does require a NASA Earth Data login.
