Payware is controlled by the owner. If you purchased something from Magicland, all you've purchased is the right to use it on ONE computer. You don't own the code, just the right to use on ONE computer. What you've actually purchased is a license to use. You don't own actually own the software files.
When you buy a book you can't copy it and give it to someone else. You can give it away or sell it but you will no longer have access to it. If send a copy of software to someone and still retain it on your computer you have in effect made a copy and gave it away.

I don't know why he left, perhaps payware isn't all that profitable after all, but he doesn't have to give a yes/no answer, he already has. The answer, in these situations is always "no", unless the creator says "yes". In the absence of "yes", the answer is always "no".

It's his property and there for he can do anything he wants with it.
If he decides to leave and not make it freeware, then that's that.
Now, if he wants to sell it and the rights, then the new owner can do as he or she sees fit, including deleting it for all time.
Unfortunately this content seems to have run it's course and won't be coming back.
It's sad, but unavoidable.

Again, it seems that without any written permission(s) from Magicland, the the answer to you question is.... NO, it is not transferable.
I know this is not want you want to hear.

How does whether the original copyright holder is available (or even alive) have any bearing on the status of the copyright?
While you may be able to sell your copy of the content in question (depending upon the license / contract agreement entered into), you most certainly cannot keep the content and distribute copies of it.

Maybe he got tired of people asking for stuff. Maybe that drove him nuts and he decided to split, instead of sticking around and putting up with all of this nonsense. Face it...you missed the boat. That happens sometimes in life. The boat's not coming back no matter how much you beg...so leave it and the rest of us in peace.

Just so you know( in the scenario above) You dont own the rights to the OS Software. You are paying for the right TO USE the OS. Windows for example.
The same goes for almost all software you buy. Trainz included. You dont own the rights to the code that makes up trainz, just the right to use it.
Magicland owns the rights to all of the content he made for trainz, So if his license says no, that means no.
I agree with Fred, can this subject now be dropped.
