So as not to further hijack the "Now I understand" thread, I'll start anew.
I've been asking how much ballast I'll need to do my 80' of HO track on beveled cork roadbed with 10 turnouts and one cross-over.
Having no responses anywhere I've asked, I called MB Klein to ask those always helpful fellers.
I'm wanting to get the Woodland Scenics B1393 fine gray-blend shaker.
The guy I talked to didn't know but asked his buddy sitting next to him.
He says I could get 9-10' from one shaker.
Gees!!! Really??
Holy ballast Batman! That's going to be near $100 + plus a bunch of shipping because I doubt it's all that light.
Is this information correct?
Surely they make this stuff available in larger bulk like a 5lb sack like kitty litter making it a little easier on the CC.
