Turntable
"Bard", a 71/4 inch gauge 0-4-0 Steam Powered Locomotive, is being turned on
a purpose built 'Turntable' which forms part of the club's ground level track.
 
Raised Track Transporter
Specially built for the raised track the 'Transporter' is used to move locomotives from
the preparation area (steaming bays) onto the main track.
The yellow handle is used to raise and lower the tracked platform which becomes part
of the main track, moving the unit away from the main line leaves a gap in the track
so strict safety procedures are followed when the transporter is in use.
