Drew is right a little is a lot. Do not over do it Josh. Put a little on and look at it. You might want to run it on your layout and see what it looks like. Not all rolling stock looks the same. Different parts of the country have different soil types and rail yards have diiferent ballasts under the track. Smoke from engines can also weather on the cars behind the engine. The rolling stock can have splatters from the wheels from the car in front,so look at the ends of the cars. Graffiti is a good idea, Again a little goes a long way. Rolling stock could have different graffiti depending on where the car resides from New York to California can be different. Josh I was going to tell you in my last post that your mother and or grandmother maybe a girlfriend will have makeup brushes that they might not need. Ask them if you can have the old brushes. They make great weathering brushes, old tooth brushes work too. You can use them to splatter paint and work it into other materials. I hope my suggestions are a help. I think everyone that has replyed remembers when they asked some- one for help. Do not be afraid to ask. I hope you have fun. Ross
