Hi Everyone
I'm about to start track laying on my HOn3 layout, Can anyone tell me what type of ballast the D&GWR used? Current photos of the D&S suggest stone but I guess that it to conform with current regulations. Many of our light railways here in the UK used cinders was this the same in America? Help would be much appreciated.
