I know a guy who made a 1/32 scale narrow gauge version of something very similar to this. Check out this video around 0:43 to see it in action.

thanks P51, that is a very cool locomotive, and a really nice layout !  great video.

I've posted this elsewhere on this forum, but last night I put down some hay remnants in the cow pasture. These are cut up 'dry grass' stalks from JT Scenics. It's a little detail that I knew was missing, I just had to find some material that would look correct for it.

Hay bales are stacked just outside the fence.

Like the cow flop detail, all you need is a farm animal sound effect generator.
Ground cover looks great.

You could add some chalk lines and a crowd for cow-flop bingo!
