Barrie Island - Version I

During 2014 it was decided that we needed to build a test track that could be set up quickly in our Club Rooms for members to test their locomotives and rolling stock. The first version of the test track was built during October 2014 and whilst it was not designed to be an exhibition layout it can and has been taken to model railway shows. It is designed to operate on conventional 12 volts DC control and had a central well theoretically so that it could be operated from there.
