I used a cheap easy fix for my roads available at any Wal-mart in 8.5 x 11 sheets. It is foam sheets with an adhesive back in black, whch can be found in the hobby/art section at Wal-mart for $.25 a piece! Cut into the shape/size you want, peel and stick! So easy and very nice looking. Goods: Cheap!!!!! Easy to find!!!!! Quick REALISTIC looking a it has the right profile for a road, especially when you bring the scenery up to and near it. Looks like fresh blacktop Can be painted and scribed to make concrete roads Can be used to make crossings, ramps, and lots (did all of them) Make those curved rail crossings with ease! Bads: Every once and a while can peel up in a place or two -- hit it with some liquid nail and it is fixed. Don't stretch the pieces -- make accurate cuts. Stretching it works temporarily, but it will shrink back to its original size after a while leaving unsightly gaps. Try this..... I think you will like it and your budget will to!
