I'm wondering if anybody has good ideas on how to represent traction sand in N-scale. I'm talking about the sand spilled from locomotives for traction on the rails. I have a yard I'm detailing and I can definitely see the need for this coloration alongside the rails. I've looked at the various Woodland Scenics fine-grade scenery materials, and the closest color they have to a true sand color is a bit too yellow. If anyone has done this with good results, I'd like to get your suggestions. Thanks in advance...
