track weathering

Found this as a link from a post on Atlas. I figured some of you Narrow guagers who use premaid track might find it useful.

Very nice link!

Wondering how he goes from the lots of white to the closeup photo.. if he has rubbed down the sleepers somehow as you get that 'grainy' look to them...

Yeah the demo seems kind of incomplete, but I think his layout looks pretty good. It's always worth seeing something done by someone else just as a jumping off point for your own style of weathering.
