George, How many times have we all been trackside and picked up a piece of ballast? Most ballast chunks can be held in one hand comfortably, correct? That having been said, I would think that an S scale figure should be able to hold a piece of ballast in his/her hand in the same manner. This is why I like to use HO ballast for S scale. It's small enough, but looks right for S scale.
It doesn't hurt that there are many kinds of HO ballast available as well.
