    If you'd like to see my video on how I laid the ballast in the turnouts while still having them operate well follow the link here: ruclips.net/video/iqLUerGfG1U/видео.html

    I find that going through to highlight ties (both darker and lighter) before ballasting is much easier. A brush and thin wash (over a base of camouflage brown) works well. To avoid patterns, I print out a list of prime numbers and use them to skip randomly. Love your channel - thanks for the tips.

    Really beautifully done, and the end result is super-nicely balanced. The little stick-on shrubs make for great highlights amongst the toned down ballast. Poor ALCOs getting a bum wrap again - still going to love my little RS27s 🙂

    Hi Andy. Thanks again for sharing your work. Indeed, track weathering is pretty much like everything else : It can be endless. I appreciate that you showed us the products you're using and the way it's been done. Simple and effective video. Keep on your good work.

      @@AndyDorsch Hi again. Thanks for answering. I think I would add some dark green to all the colors you used on track's ties and ballast. But it shows at the end that pretty much everything can go in and the result will be awesome. That part is the artistic one. It's not technical at all except for the process of doing it. That's pretty much less stressful than painting a building, a car or an engine. Thanks again for sharing.

    Great job Andy! It is a great way to tone stuff down and make it look more natural. Glad you showed how ties age. They are definitely not all the same.

    This looks fantastic! I just hand built my first turnout and a little track, haven’t gotten to this step any advice with wood ties or ???
    Am I behind but what happened to the Marshfield with the awesome crappy track, or am I thinking of someone else?

    Nice job. I may have missed it but what size needle are you using in your airbrush? I model n scale and I can’t get to the level of detail you did here but certainly can use many of the techniques
