Track weathering
Posted by dwhitetop2 on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 5:35 PM

I am at the stage where my trackis down on the roadbed, but not ballasted yet. Is this the time to weather it or should I ballast first. I plan on trying to use an air brush since I have about 120 feet to do. Thank you Dave

Sounds like a good plan. Try to use a paint like rail brown with a couple drops of black mixed in. Good luck.

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself, or maybe ballasting some track.
