Got this stuff from my train shop guy a few weeks ago. Someone wanted to see the orange ground cover? here ya go! Some red, too. I like these round containers of various products , very retro model railroading.







Pretty cool stuff!

The cement really IS cement - is a fine gray powder, I imagine just add water. It was still silty feeling, so I suspect it's still good. Hasn't hardened up or dried out or gotten solid.

MIDLIN was a maker of track products in the 40s IIRC--I have a (cast lead) Midlin track gauge and a few of their "self-gauging" precut wood ties for handlaying track. Very neat find with that ballast cement!

Thanks, I was asking about the orange ground cover. That is
so weird that it breaks the Geiger Counter of weirdness.
What scenic application would that have had???
