I plan to build up a significant mound of ballast out of a caliche/clay/earth mixture, which I will lay down a month before the track goes in. I will water it and add to it as needed to promote a sense of solidification. After that I will dig a trench in the center of that road bed and use traditional small grain gravel ballast with I will continue to build, manicure and maintain for the life of my layout as a real railroad would do. <br /> <br />If this is a fool’s errand, please advise… <br />
