Abandoned tracks

Ok I have now gone through and uploaded some photos.

Catalina Park, September 2006. I don’t think there is a straight, level piece of track out of the whole lap, it twists and dives all over the place with a lot of camber change through some of the corners. Zero run-off too, surrounded by railway sleeper fences for the most part. Bonus photo of the famous Three Sisters nearby at Katoomba on a crisp spring morning.

Lakeside, June 2007. This was an evening visit and falling light levels challenged the camera so the photos I didn’t use were a lot worse than these. This track was in use until the late 90’s from memory so roughly a decade had gone by when I visited. Lakeside actually has a lot in common with Catalina in that it is nearly constantly changing direction bar a downhill straight into the last corner and the start-finish straight.
