COUNTERLANE J4



Now things start to get very exciting. Counterlane junked the idea of re-packing existing Powertrack sets and created their own creations.

The J4 U-Turn Race N Chase is a case in point. Interestingly, it was a 6v set and presumably created to use up stocks of 6v electrics. The naff 6V battery box even puts in an appearance!

The 6v cars hinted at in Dapol literature are the yellow/orange BMW and the Police car, though I suspect Dapol would have used whatever cars they had at their disposal.

The J4 featured the 90 degree intersection too, though the 9" section in lieu of the 15" Speedtrack version. Dapol referred to this as the 6V intersection...

The set comprised:

2 x 6v 'Lighted' cars
2 x 6v Race & Chase hand controllers
1 x 6v Grandstand battery box
1 x Terminal track 9"
1 x Straight 9"
1 x Intersection 9"
4 x Straight 6"
6 x 90 Degree curves
6 x Track aprons
4 x LH apron ends
3 x RH apron ends

This set retailed for £34.50
