Is ballast grey or brown?
Ballast can be either colour.
If you are creating a layout of a prototype line then you should try and stick as close to the real thing as possible, the stone would have come from a local quarry so the colour of ballast would change from region to region.

If, however you are building a layout that is not a current or historical line, you can use either colour to suit your preference.
