I just finishing laying my track on the layout. I'm using all Bachmann EZ Track. Question I have is should I ballast this track?
Has anyone ever done it using EZTrack? Someone told me I should only paint it but I really want to try my hand at Ballasting.

I would run it a long time before ballasting. Make certain all the kinks, bumps, gauge issues, electrical dead spots, and other operational things are 100% worked out, then consider ballasting. It is so much harder to work with once ballasted. Ballasting can cause new problems and it is good to know if it was pre-existing or ballast induced.
Good Point.. Thank you. There's still a lot of work to keep me busy. Wiring, Scenery etc. I"m sure waiting would be best.
I ballasted all of the EZ track on my layout. First, I coated everything in flex paste then laid my ballast on top of that. Check out my posts for pictures.
Thanks Dustyb87. I will check them out. I jut think adding he ballast will be more fun to do.
Dusty-where are your posts with pictures for the EZ track ballast?
