Holding down Outdoor Ballast G Scale Model Train Forum
2011年8月8日 I have to use decomposed granite for ballast because that is what is available around here. It works fine if you screen out the large pieces. I have tried titebond II and concrete. Over time nothing really is permanent. But my railroad is on the ground through the garden. So what I do now is just replace the ballast when we get some heavy rains.
