Turnout Tie
I have been looking for ties for use in makeing turnouts for a while. Today I was informed by MicroEngineering that they do not have any ties available and will not have any time soon. They said something about an issue with a supplier or some such.
So the question is two part.
One, where can I can ties for use building turn out,
Two, does anyone have any idea what color to stain said ties to get them to match (or at least come close) to the stained ties that ME sold?
A few points of info.
Benchwork Arrives on the Augusta Railway
This weekend it was 8 degrees and I have over a foot of snow in the yard. Wife didn't want to go outside, so I built the benchwork for my layout! What fun. It is just temporarily held together with clamps as I've got to finish the clouds on the backdrop.

Seeing trees for the forest
Since I am intending these trees for my FreemoN module, I think that they should all be of the "foreground" quality. I also intend on modeling at least one section of the module to include a woodsy hill. The edges of the module will "slice" through the woods and spectators will be able to see a fully modeled understory. At least that is what I am planning, reality and my skills my have other things in store for me.
