I am sure someplace I have read but can't find it now what colour do you people spray the track to give that rust affect.

Hornby make various colours. https://www.hornby.com/uk-en/shop/rail- ... ering.html

Phoenix Rusty Rail.

I give mine an all over spray of Humbrol no. 29 before ballasting, then add grease and grime with sooty black and earth brown using an airbrush.

You could have left it out in the rain.......if you’d had any John.

I would happily put a track oblong outside, if I thought it would get wet. Mouth to mouth on goldfish, is time consuming

I too use Phoenix Rusty Rails. I've also used Humbrol 'Leather'.
