Found an inexpensive source for ground cover and ballast. Country Max fish and reptile section has a wide selection of colors of fine sands for fish and reptile enclosures. They have a nice stone one that looks like granet ballast or gravel roads. Few different shades of brown. The black is perfect for coal loads or asphalt roads. $8 for 10 pounds. Cheaper than most non self made products I have found.
