orsonroy, <br /> <br />I thought the Woodland stuff was actually cork based, would grinding work? I've looked at their "fine" ciders. It seems close, but not as fine. I'm more of a transtion era guy myself, but all of the B&O service areas, even into the late 60's had the same ground cover, fine black cinder type. And yes, it all looked very clean, maybe an occasional oil spot, but not much vegetation. <br /> <br />I have been searching everywhere for a suitable substitute, no luck. Maybe some sort of powder painted flat black. If you come across anything I would appreciate an email, I'll do the same if I come across something. You can reach me at: <br /> <br />dgoodlander@att.net <br /> <br />Thanks.
