Hello, new to the board and to model railroading. I am working now on a small layout I began earlier this year. Its 5 foot by 6 1/2 foot. I have decided to use a Intermodal them for the layout since its small. But I had a few questions. <br />1st, do they make bendable wall retainers I can use for my woodland scenics inclines, they are curved in some spots. 2nd, whats a good way to make a conctrete platform for the trucks and the intermodal crane to load the cars. Sould I remove the ties and use something like smooth-it for the rails? Do they make LED yard light towers? And do they make curved viaducts? Or would I have to use the foam risers for my elevated rails? I am using Atlas code 83 track. Most of the main lines are down. Just working on the inclines and risers now. What color balast should I use? Some RRs use gray, others I have noticed used white with no break dusting. Thanks.
