Which track content should I use for rail within asphalt?

[beach_rail]

I have a mainline which enters a rail yard on a marine terminal. I'm trying to keep the track looking realistic based on an actual terminal I'm modeling. The rail doesn't have cross-ties and ballast - it just seems to be embedded in the asphalt / concrete somehow although I'm sure there's probably non-visible support underneath. Are there track sections to emulate this? If not, how does one simulate this? Thank you.

There are several rail-only tracks in the menu. These don't have ballast or cross-ties. Auran uses them in their routes, so they are built in already.

You will have to experiment which one is best, because some of them have a bad look when the radius of curves becames too sharp

Ok, will do....thanks Frank.

Depending what look you are going for there are tramway style tracks by andi06 (rail only) and solagon (including a rusty one) that I use all the time. Depends if you want the rail to look sunk in with a continuous check-rail or not.

There is a rail only that has the groove like dock and trolley lines have ... memory failing
