I used 1/8" harboard for the roads; sprayed them with Rustoleum "Aged Iron" textured paint. The sidewalks and bases were painted with Rustoleum "Sandstone"; I then used a pencil to scribe expansion joints.

Medium Grey Talus was used for the shoulder.

R/C airplane striping was used for crosswalks and lane markings; the material was sanded lightly to remove the sheen.

..then added Grey Talus to finish the enbankment. 

I also choose (thanks to Ray Marion and Rick O for your inspiration) to bring the ballast up to track level. I really liked how this turned out.
