Home Depot in my area sells a 50 lb. plastic bag of "crusher fines" for about $3.00. Color, light gray. Nice and neat and cheap. It is moist when it is in the bag. I found it is easier to apply ballast with the stone being dry so I dump the bag out onto a tarp and spread it around. It dries out quickly. You can apply ballast moist, but I have found it is easier to work with when its dry. Have fun finding out for yourself, there is really no wrong way to do it. This product is similar to what DANIELROB describes above. Home Depot makes it easy purchase. <br />Here is a photo of the bag of "crusher fines" <br />http://1stclass.mylargescale.com/JRad/images/TN_Step2-1-640.JPG
