Track Ballast for Model Rail in different grades and colours to suit different layouts and gauges & scales. Also available in Glue Kits.
In the real world, railway ballast is typically made of crushed gravel and other aggregates. The purpose of railway ballast is to absorb and distribute the weight of the train and other forces created by the cars moving over the track. Ballast is also important for dispersing water so that it does not impede train operations.

WWScenics’ model railway ballast is available in a variety of colours and chip sizes from fine to medium and large. Once you decide which size and colour ballast material is right for your project you will need to make sure you use the best possible adhesive. Many of our ballast packages come bundled with War World Scenics professional-grade Track Ballast Glue that will ensure your model track ballast stays put without looking like it’s glued down.
Considerations When Applying Track Ballast Glue
Once model railroad ballast has been glued down it will be virtually impossible to remove, as such ensure everything about your track plan is as it should be before applying any adhesive.
While you can spray paint the ballast after it’s in place, it’s always better to use the correct colour to begin with.
If you need to rectify and dry soldered joints on your track you should do so before gluing down the model ballast.

Answer...Unfortunately, we do not sell different sized sieve heads for the Micro Applicator. Only the Pro Grand Applicator comes with three different sized sieve heads.
Here are some key things for you to check when applying static grass using our applicator:
Use a powerful brand-new battery (PP3 9V battery).
Do not fill the hopper with too much grass, as the grass needs to have space to move.
Only apply a smear of basing glue on the required area and make sure to apply the basing grass before it dries. Room temperature can affect this.
Do not apply too much basing grass to the area. If you cover the basing glue with too much grass it will not stand but go flat.
Once you have applied the basing grass and cannot see the basing glue anymore, add some layering spray before applying the layering grass.
Make sure the crocodile clip is near the applicator's head when applying the grass. You do not need to put a nail or screw into your model.
Click-and-Collect is not yet available. However, you can still place an order and collect it by contacting us at customerservice@wwscenics.com
