The engines are powered by steam generated by burning coal. Some are battery powered electric engines and can pull several children or two or three adults. This track is approximately 1800' long. Our open house week-ends are in July and September when we are open to the public for rides and to other clubs or model Railways enthusiasts to bring along their engines and enjoy the use of our facilities. On these week-ends our ladies have a full snack bar in operation.
Light snacks are available at other times.
There is no entrance fee or charge for rides, but if you would like to make a donation, red boxes are situated around the premises. Camera enthusiasts are very welcome, but we must warn you, not to lean out of the trains while riding, as the cars have a very low centre of gravity and have a narrow wheel gauge. Relax and enjoy, Bernie Shearman, President. The RHLS track is located in Ballantrae on McCowan Road, one mile north of Aurora Road, approximately 45 minutes, north of Toronto , Ontario, Canada. I hope this will pique your interest to visit at our track during the summer months.
