There are several locations where the available rail side space is very slim. Ideally I would like to portray a Pennsy stone wall. I have the wall material in interlocking foam but unfortunately it is too thick for usage. My desire is to not have spliced joints every 2' but rather a 8'+ run in a three locations. Heights range from 5 to 8 inches.
The gentleman who traded as "I love bridges" made a really nice foam based wall 10' long for me but he sadly passed away. His detail was exceptional.

Similar to the Pennsy wall, these brick and then stone sheets against a back wall with no side space provide a little more realism IMHO. No reason not to go for it.
Richie,

Wall material and thickness?

Tom- I used an image printed on card stock. Not sure if maybe Staples or Kinkos could copy it into a longer image but I like the look of it.

Thank you, - Hi, Tom

Wall material and thickness? - These are litho'd, embossed printing on heavyweight paper stock (1/64" thick ?). They come in 6" high by either 12" long (about $4) or 25.5" long (about $7) and are applied with carpenter's or spray glue. They come in your choice of Granite, Dolomite, Basalt, Quarrystone, Sandstone and Brick facings. They can be stacked vertically or expanded lengthwise. They can also be cut with scissors and matched.
How thick at the pilaster? - see above
