I have worked out a process that makes laying track a lot easier and getting your camber right a lot easier.. You get the bed pretty right using crusher fines as ballast, then lay the track on top of the fines. I then put a fair amount of crusher fines onto the sleeper and brush it along and into the spaces with an old paint brush. I the check the camber with a small spirit level and get it right by lifting the track and pushing ballast under the high sleepers. I then use a spirit level to check that my gradient is what i wanted and regular and consitent. When I am happy with this I water the lot in and check camber; again going about the same process. When all is ok I give a variety of rolling stock and locos a run on it and then Doreen comes along and adds decorative ballast, whatever we deam correct for that part of the track. Rgds ian
