| Our club aims to build, drive and demonstrate model steam locomotives and various steam driven machines. At our clubsite we have 7 1/4" ground level track which is approximately 400 meters in length, a raised 3 1/2" and 5" combined track, 250 meters in length and last but not least we have approximately 35 meters of gauge 1 track on an oval table. There are hardened roads and footpaths, where traction engines and other steam driven vehicles can drive freely within the site. The middle terrain is used for showing a variety of model engineering activities during the big events. |
