Woodland Scenics WB1379 Brown Medium Ballast is a high-quality modeling ballast with a capacity of 1 liter, designed for realistic reproduction of railway surfaces, side roads, and model diorama landscapes. The product is intended both for railway modellers in popular scales such as H0 (1/87), N (1/160), TT (1/120), as well as diorama builders and those creating architectural and military layouts.

The WB1379 Medium Ballast has been carefully color-matched – its brown shade perfectly imitates the classic railway ballast substrate found at minor stations and on rural railway lines throughout Europe and North America. The medium grade fraction is ideal for most tracks in H0 and TT scales, enabling you to create an authentic effect of fine gravel structure under the rails.
