The shelf I'm using I purchased at lowes. Pics of it in my first post, will post better ones when I get a chance. It's about 4 feet long and 10" deep. I covered the top with a piece of Gator foam. I save the foam from packages of items we buy now and again, comes in handy. From my measurements I found my shelf was about an inch too narrow so I added another strip of foam to the back, to make up for it. For a base coat I applied an artist acrylic thinned out a bit. The color is Mississippi mud and looks pretty good for dirt base color. For my base coat on weathering the ties I'm using an acrylic color called Barn wood. More to come...
