pluses, minuses?
pluses, minuses?
I ripped up my first layout which was foam (Woodland Scenics roadbed) on foam (Dow Square Edge blue styrofoam) and it was a waste of time. The pink or blue foam is fine for making hills and such, but the next layout will have track resting on cork on plywood. The terrain will be foam.
I had problems with track maintaining alignment and gage. Flex track wanted to straighten, and didn't say even. This layout was in a climate controlled room. There simply wasn't anything to keep the track in place.
