Decided to weather the MTH track before putting on the tables. Will be a slow process, hand painting. Once on tables, in the future will add ballast and additional weather. (My wife says she likes the new look better, not weathered. LOL)

My preference is the weathered. Looks good.
Looks like an effort. But, if you had 100 guests (non-train nerds) view the board, I would imagine that there might be 2 who actually noticed the difference in the new vs. the other. Just an opinion from viewing my guests, and those that I have been with at other open house viewings. Kind of like putting passengers in cars- I do it, but I realize, most people never notice them! Good luck with your efforts, looks nice, but I think it needs to a lot "dirtier" to look closer the real stuff around here. Tracks seem to be mostly rust. and most ballast seems to be dark gray to black!
