They no longer have 6":1 mile (1:10,560), + others on the layers option, its gone, is there any alternatives? I really do miss this feature.

You can access the same maps (and more) on oldmaps.co.uk, but to get anything more than a brief snapshot you have to pay a subscription. The note under "info" on the railmaps website suggests that they are also available on the NLS (National Library of Scotland) website but I haven't investigated that yet. I agree they are sorely missed.

The disappearance of these maps on Railmapsonline is a sad loss. The site is far less useful without them.
