Regarding ballast tests - I'll take some photos tonight when I get home of what I have down using the grout.
BTW, you do know that Woodland Scenics ballast isn't really rock, right? it's ground up Walnut shell, which is why I am told it is hard to deal with when applying the old glue and water adhesive method. I would suggest a company like Smith and Sons (there are many others) who use real rock in their product.
*** UPDATE - Found some photos of my previous ballast experiments here on my work computer. I posted them in my layout thread at - <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2277&p=37578#p37578">viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2277&p=37578#p37578</a><!-- l --> ***
