Check out a garden supply or landscaper foe "Crusher fines" or even small size red rock, (shale?) 3/8 in size for ballast...... unless some one in your location is actually raising chickens, you may have a hard time getting "chicken grit." Bachman track is not weatherproof, LGB and Aristocraft are. You may have luck buying your supplies mailorder if there are no local hobby shops. Check this site out for manufacturers, Garden Railways Magazine is an excellent source for information...... The web has many interesting sites, have fun hunting around, some of the U.K. sites are great, of course here in the States there are many also. Good Luck and have fun, it won't happen overnight, lay out a simple loop or adapt an OGauge plan to your yard, for the time being avoid turnouts.(switches)
