to fwright:: I just emailed dickiee to say I built an 11 by 28 around the walls HO layout a few years ago, all on foam with only 1 X 2 wood supports every couple of feet. Cork held well with white glue, and track nails held the track , at least for a year until I had to tear it all down and downsize my life. Both track and cork came up with great ease. Track pulled right out, and cork easily scraped off with a drywall spatula. I suspect the track would have stayed solid forever, even in a damp basement. One end of the layout had a 36 inch minimum radius up and over double track loop with support for foam only about every 3 feet. It worked beautifully, and the Super Chief looked great on it. I am going with foam on a folding table top now that I'm beginning a 2 1/2 by 6 N scale pike, and I know it'll work great, too. Foam rocks on, man.
