The railroad track is halfway finished. The rail road ties have been drybrushed with Matt 29 Earth, then a second time with Matt 29 lightened with Matt 93 Desert Yellow. The gravel is drybrushed with Matt 64 Light Gray, then a second and third time with a little white added with each pass. The lower part of each rail and mounting hardware are washed several times with Matt 62 Leather for a rusty effect. The top of the rail is painted Humbrol Polished Steel and rubbed with a soft cloth to a high gloss shine.

The finished railroad bed, Raw Umber washes are run around the track, creating more depth than there really is, Edges of railroad ties are subtly drybrushed with a brownish white (Matt 29 plus White). Note the ditch running next to the track.

Track Ballast :
Ballast pours from container directly in place around the track ties. Use brush for spreading evenly. Will hold track in place while providing drainage to prevent standing water. This will minimize frost heave and helps minimize deterioration with wooden ties. This light gray granite is one of the hardest rocks available. This #2 light colored white and gray granite chip used by many central European lines. Flakes are sharp. Excellent for dioramas
