I like the powdered stuff. It dries more quickly than the pre-mix and is harder. This is particularly important if you are applying it thickly. It comes in various setting times. The quicker the set time, the harder the end product.

Isn't it amazing; such a seemingly small change produces such a huge improvement in the whole track.
Well worth doing.
David.

Dang, now I have to go back to the beginning and re-read to see how you got to the rebuild step.

As a guy who lives very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, I have to say that change makes it more prototypical!

waaytoo - good to hear that - I think it looks better now and the scenery will have a front to rear flow with the elevations
cheers

I like the change and agree it works much better this way. Great work.

The bridges and overpasses on the BRP have a particular style, the same way the Natchez Trace and the Old River Road do. Are you planning to model them? If so, the double pass will be spectacular scenery.

David, I'm on the case! I'll post some pictures on this topic in a new thread to keep from taking over yours.
