Speaking of the WS ballast, I prefer the appearance of their "coarse" grade - trouble is, for HO scale it's football-sized. 
I have used it as "fill" at the lower extremities of the ballast shoulders, though. WS is the only brand that my LHS stocks, and I hesitated to try something different without actually seeing it firsthand. As for the WS ground cover, I wish that they'd come out with some blue/grey colours for use as distant foliage - it would save having to airbrush to get that effect.
Shane, thanks for the (unsolicited) testimonial.
