Thanks, Dave. I am not completely happy with the rail color as I think it is too reddish/rusty. It needs to be a more mellow brown/gray. I simply hit it with Rustoleum primer because I did not want to spend crazy time on the rail weathering. I have tried the basics in the past. Color pens, markers, airbrush, etc. This is the fastest though not a perfect color for a main line. The ballast is Scenic Express mixed but it is not yet finished. I plan to weather the ballast as well as some weathering chalk on the sides of the rails. Check back in a week or so for the next update. I need to address those issues as well as install catenary and a few other fixes.
