Maple Leaf Tracks Inc.

MLT's CN Bala Route V1.5 is a recreation of the Southern portion of Canadian National Railway's Bala Subdivision. As the start of the CNR's trans continental rail line from Toronto to Vancouver.

The route starts in Toronto, Ont on the Halton Sub in North Metro Toronto. V1.5 adds 10 more miles of Halton Sub and the Brampton Intermodal Yard and other industrial trackage. The large MacMillin Division point yard is located at the East end of the Halton and contains a dual hump classification area as well as arrival and departure tracks and service areas. The yard is surrounded by many industries and warehouses. The route heads East on the York Sub to the Junction of the Bala Sub and turns North passing by many homes and industries. From there, the route passes through rural areas, along the Simcoe lakeshore and its cottage country, eventually reaching the Canadian Shield and its rocky forests.

This add-on pack contains high quality textures and detailed equipment at a level not previously seen in MLT products.

CN Bala V1.5 is a complete route for purchase and installation and does not need V1.1 previously installed.
