By the way, want a "Low-Buck" alternative to regular HO scale ballast? Try "Tidy-Cat" Scoop away cat litter. It has the right color and size for HO scale ballast,and about 7 bucks gets you around 10 pounds or so. Enough to ballast one real big layout. Just apply and glue as you would the "store bought" ballast. It might be a good idea to keep the cats out of the train room though! (just kidding!) Use that 50/50 glue mix, and you'll be all set. (Don't forget to spray a detergent solution first). ( a drop of dish soap in a quart of water). This will make the glue flow through the ballast. <br /> Todd C.
