Hi suzyQ, <br />Welcome to the addiction we call Garden Railroading. <br /> <br />To answer your question, splines are the long thin slats that are formed into the roadbed and risers are the legs that hold the roadbed at the height needed. <br /> <br />However, I feel that a spline roadbed system may be a bit premature for someone just getting into garden railroading. <br />It all depends on your level of skill with a table saw and a few hand tools. <br /> <br />I don't know what your site is like so its hard for me to give advice as to what type of roadbed you should use. <br /> <br />The one thing to remember when just starting out in this hobby is this....KEEP IT SIMPLE, <br />roadbed, track plan, scope and cost untill you find your way around then expand into the full space you have. <br /> <br />Hope this helps......OLD DAD
