In a departure from the real railways, I venture onto my model railway layout to show how I ballast my track. It is a time consuming task, but I hope to show in this video that taking the time to do it in shortish track lengths can make it less tedious.
I hope this of help to at least some of you who haven't tried ballasting in the past.
If you enjoyed, please consider buying me a coffee :

This is really helpful. Many thanks for making the video. Do you have to worry about the glue seeping into the joints of the tracks? Do you make sure the tracks themselves remain clear of glue?

Because the glue mix is so thin it doesn't really affect the joints, however I have been known to rub the tracks when dry if I think glue may be on them. Thanks for watching.

What’s your opinion on using or not using cork underlay? So many different viewpoints about it on you tube.

It really depends on if you want to dampen the sound or not. I prefer the sound of the models over a track layed on just the board, it is personal preference / need to soundproof the layout . This is just my opinion though, as you say there are many about.
