If you just want a flat track it's very simple:

Pseudo codeish thingie:

Create an empty mesh
For every anchor point
  Position a dummy pivot and align it to the anchor point
  TFormPoint -1,0,0,dummy pivot,0
  Add a vertex at TformedX,Y,Z
  TFormPoint 1,0,0,dummy pivot,0
  Add a vertex at TformedX,Y,Z
  If anchor point>first
    add triangles between previous anchor point vertices
       and this anchor points vertices
  else if anchor point = last
    add triangles between the first anchor point vertices
       and this anchor points vertices  
  end if 
Next anchor point

That's it :)
