The new yard got it's ballast and ground cover.
Ballast is N-scale fine granite and light fine sand between the tracks. The sand got patches of N-scale lime rock to enforce a more brownish finish.
Following Kurt's advise no H0-scale ballast has been used and the nice brown dirt from the street has been replaced by finer lime rock of an equal color.
I can now proceed detailing.
