More on Ballasting...
Well, today I went back to look at my ballasting work from the other day. I just don't get it why my ballast is lumpy. It looks ok from a distance, but just uneven and such. I tried this time saturating the ballast with glue from within the rails and along the bottom (letting the glue soak down and up) trying to avoid creating the lumpiness by dropping glue directly on the ballast side profile. It just doesn't work well for me. I need to get one of the local guys to give me a ballasting class.
