TIL that's good to know, thanks ! Yeah I might end up doing that ; I'm still hoping to find a good compromise built out of Lego, since it's easy to reuse the bricks for whatever other project later on. Do you know of any example of ballasting R56 with Lego, maybe with another brand than Trixbrix, that I could use for inspiration, but with a "1 piece" curve track ? (I mean Not like L-Gauge reference instructions for R56 which uses 2-pieces ME Models rails the actual curve : http://l-gauge.org/downloads/Ref006BallastR56CurveRevA.pdf).

Hello, I'm ballasting tracks onto baseplates with the L-Gauge reference instructions (http://l-gauge.org/wiki/index.php/Reference_Instructions). I'm using third-party R56 curves (from Trixbrix, but I guess it should apply to any brand) and I was wondering if any of you had a good way of ballasting those ? I tried a couple options inspired from R40 ballast, but it leaves gaps bigger than I would like, and I couldn't find examples on the Web. Thanks :)
