How to you plan to do the ground cover? There is very little real ballast but the tracks are covered up to the ties with mud and dirt. In 1:87 scale is that dust but dust is very hard to glue down with white glue.

Reinhard,

I'd like to try textured spray paint to make a ground foundation before adding dirt. When I built my QSSR layout, I used realy dirt from sifted crushed stone and it glued well. I also use the same mix on Hedley Junction. I think tile grout is harder to glue or maybe I should just have wetted it?
