More about Doncaster & Stainforth AC Track
This running track in Doncaster is close to rectangular, with what amounts to four straights and four corners. It was the base of the now defunct Doncaster Plant Works AC, whose works stood next to the ground. That club was absorbed into Doncaster & Stainforth AC, who operate from the track now, which is where its name comes from. The A-Z suggests Doncaster Plant Works has become British Rail Engineering Sports Ground, though that has probably been renamed again to Railtrack something. Yorkshire champs were held here in the 1960s, and it was the venue for Terry Edmondson's 244.393km over 24 hours on 29 May 1988, a mark in the UK all-time list. It was still 440y in 1973, and whether it was ever altered to 400m isn't known. A 24 hour track race was staged here on 29-30 May 1999.
