Hi Peter,
I like Polly Scale P/N F414317 Concrete and P/N F414320 Aged Concrete. I get mine from Internet Trains, but it is available from most LHS's and many other model suppliers.

Hope this helps, John

Concrete, foundation, grime any of these or a combination. Pick a base color then use washes, drybrush or weathering chaulks to get the color and weathering you desire.
I have even used lightened CSX grey for the base then washed with grime.
