Who Makes N Scale Streets With Yellow Lines?

I've been looking for some street material that has yellow lines down the middle instead of white lines. I could only find two street manufacturers (Heki and Busch), but they both have white lines:

If I can't find any, I guess I'll have to make my own roadway out of styrene sheet and yellow line decals.


Hmm... and Kiz hasn't
even started trying to
find N scale sidewalks...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Kit - follow DFF's thread or for yellow lines I use Tamika modeling masking tape. It is thin for
model airplane lines and you can lay it down straight, burnish it and you apply the paint in
a dry brushing technique.

Yeah, wish there was a flexible ready-to-lay road which follows the US standard when it comes to striping.

There was at one point - I had some done in yellow stripes on what appeared to be tar paper. Long straights, curves, and even intersections. Measured to us dot width standards. Looked like fresh asphalt to boot. Darn if I can remember the name though.

Leisuretime (one word) products mini highways? Trainworld, and I'm sure others, carry this product line.

ON my old layouts I used a drafting eraser shield to paint my own. 6' line with a 8' spacing for city streets that is what an old street painter told me what the specs were.
