From the N list at Yahoo! Check out this new company's products http://www.realroad.bigstep.com/catalog.html Courtesy post only -- no affiliation eNjoy Don B [ 18 August 2001: Message edited by: dbn160 ]</p>
I was the one that posted the message on Yahoo. I have not yet purchased the product (not to that point in the layout construction), but I did ask for a sample. I was sent a folder with a sample of an HO road and an N road both in their asphalt product and a piece of their concrete product. I was very impressed with how realistic this stuff looked. I was also impressed with the method of construction. You build the entire road at the workbench (or any other flat space) on a piece of plastic wrap. Then when the product cures, you peel it off the plastic and cut the two edges of the road with scissors or a hobby knife. The road will be flexible so you can glue it down to your layout and add scenery up to the new road to blend it in. The full kit also comes with a yellow and white paint pen to draw on lines (this would be easier on stright sections than on curved sections). All in all, it looks very good.
