What do you use to do that? I thought to use thin cardboard, but some suggest against for fear that it won't hold together well. Using two different types of cardboard makes less sense since the difference in elevation can cause derailments. Anyone have suggestions and how to do that?
TIA!

Hi!
I use the normal cork roadbed for the mains, and 1/8 inch cork sheeting for the yards and industrial siding. If you want the mains a bit higher, then I concur with a previous suggestion to use masonite. One area I've had to redo a couple of times is the gradiant from the main to the sidings. A couple of them I made to "steep", and had some problems with derailing. So, I finally bit the bullet and ripped them out and used old IBM cards to lengthen the transition.
Ooops, some of you may not know what IBM cards are. Ask anyone over 55 and they are probably quite familiar with them.
ENJOY!
