What's the Rule-of-Thumb for Ballast

I'd like to know a good rule-of-thumb for calculating the amount of ballast needed.... <br /> <br />Given HO flex track on cork, how many feet per pound of ballast? I know the numbers will bounce up and down, but I'd like to at least get within 25% of what I'll actually need. Suggestions? This is a 5 pound vs. 50 pounds question..... :-) <br /> <br />Mark in Utah
