## Description

168mm long, with spring loaded connections.

Review: Really good product and dcc ready but for some reason I thought u had to purchase the green tipped part u push in for power lead but it’s just the same as any dcc ready though I’m only using Dc I thought it was specialised but it’s just ur average dcc ready power track. Works fine and good Hornby quality, it’s just a bit confusing between these green tipped ones which is wat I though this was normal orangey red tipped dcc ready power track that does work with HM6000 devices. Other than the confusion still needed one and still all works ok
Review: The power track that came with my Hornby Mallard train set did not work. It was easier just to buy another track pack. The new one works.
