<p>Ken Patterson made a "whats neat" video where he showed evidence of foam shrinkage. I too have seen this with my own eyes. My modular club has dozens of modules where the foam has started to contract (noticeable as cracks forming at the plywood/foam boundary/visible humps at the module ends. Foam is not uniformly even, and I found myself doing a lot of patching before laying track on my home layout to level the transition between foam sheets. </p>
