Excellent tip Harold, now if only they made some of that paper 1/2 as thick for N scale, though your method may work.

Thanks!!!

Oh and looks very real.

Harold, Very interesting, especially as I've got a Cambell building I'm in the middle of that I'll need something like this for.

Any idea how it might function as a road material, standing in for asphalt?

That is very strange. I model the 1870's and don't think of anything in terms outside that timeframe. When I look at modeling and materials it is for that limited time.

It probably would make good asphalt. I think someone sells a similar product.
