The image below is an aerial photograph of the track.

The track is a raised track approximately 2000 feet long (610 metres) with 50 foot minimum radius curves. It has been built to accommodate both 5" and 3 1/2" inch gauge models. On the left hand side of the aerial picture you can see the station building with a path leading from the main walkway and in the middle of the picture you can see the bridge. The pictrues below show these in more detail (click to see a larger image).

A complete circuit of the track takes approx 5 minutes, you can see this by taking a virtual ride on our railway. To experience this for yourself you need to visit the railway at Ryton Pools. For information about timetables see our Calendar page.
