Barrie Island - Rebuilding to create Mark III 

During September 2024 further modifications were made by the adding of 9mm gauge circle of track with a passing loop in the centre of the board suitable for both 009 and N gauge trains. Like the outside track on the main test track this can be operated in both DCC and 12 volt DC modes.

A view of the test track with the current track arrangements
Each of the four circuits have their own independent 12 volt DC Gaugemaster panel mounted controllers. In addition the outer circuit and the inner 9mm gauge circuits can be switched to DCC mode for which we use an NCE handheld controller to run trains in DCC mode
