Fine Basalt Ballast -- Red-Brown - 8-13/16oz 250g

Realistic, Just Like Real Ballast!

PROFI Ballast and Track Ballast

Ballast and rocks play a very important role in designing realistic model landscapes. The rocks used for ballasting the tracks, are, in general, mined regionally and, therefore, reflect the colouring and the structure of the region’s rocks perfectly. You can ballast your trackbeds extremely realistic with the new NOCH Ballast.
The ballast is available in four different colour shades and two different grain sizes, for the scales H0, TT, N and Z. The different types of ballast are ideal for mixing with one another which creates completely new colour shades.
Coal is one of the new product range’s options for decorating your locomotives and railway depots. It consists of a material that resembles real coal deceptively!

How-to-tip PROFI Ballast “Gneiss”

Ballasting Tracks

In order to design a perfect trackbed, we recommend Cork Trackbed as an underlay for the tracks. These dampen the noise levels and create the optics of a ballast bed with small embankments on both sides of the tracks. The ballast is scattered over the trackbeds and then spread across its interspaces with a brush. Subsequently, NOCH Ballast Glue is drizzled on top of the loose ballast in order to adhere it permanently.
