I don’t know if anyone told you or not but make sure to get the ballast out in between the rail your engine might suck a piece up into the gears and cause you some heart ache.
Thanks Lee, I was not planning on leaving it there, just wanted to leave it for now until I got further along and I can use a clean vacuum to pick the unused ballast up and reuse it. For now I have been using my inside loop when I want to run trains. Don't want the trains to loosen the ballast before it is completely dry.
Thanks again!

I didn’t think you would I really wasn’t going to say anything I’m the last guy to give advice on someone’s layout. Thanks for not taking it the wrong way can’t wait for more update and you and a couple others are giving me the fever to start ballasting.
