 Lee don't feel bad you did'nt get rid of him as a fellow on the so-called HO/N Guage  forum did to me once . Very UN=POLITELY told me to go back with the old geezers on the O guage forum and ask my question --- LOL --  SoapBox [soapbox]  I think it was the model railroading forum if I remember correctly . I asked him "where do you think model railroading started ? "

Thank You Chief!!Smile [:)]

I was trying to help the guy named RudeRat!  Also I have done some H.O. train work and the track is differant in many ways.  I really like O gauge best, I grew up with Lionel trains in the mid 60's.

Well, you got rid of him!

So, just how does H0 cork differ from 0 cork roadbed?

I don't think Lee was getting rid of him . That's what we always do, he welcomed him & gave him some good advice & told him where all the HO people are .  Oh, I don't think there's too much difference in O & HO cork roadbed except the width. Hope this helps !!

Thanks, John

Sign - Welcome [#welcome] RudeRat,

I would not suggest glueing as that is more permanent way to attach something, nail it down with the track.

Also most people here on this forum are into O gauge trains, you will do better to try the Model Railroad forum of this site!

I am going to put a train up and never done it before. it will be HO. I have EZ track but my boy wants to use cork and flat track. If I do then how is the best way to lay the cork.?? Do I glue it or nail it or what. All help will be appreciated.

BTW this is my first time to post.
