Laying Track to Foam

I noticed that on the Woodland Scenics web site they suggest covering the foam sub-roadbed with plaster cloth before applying the roadbed and track. Anyone know what the advantage to this would be? Is it really necessary? <br /> <br />Also, do you think carpenters glue or silicone caulk will hold their brand of track bed? I see they sell a glue called "foam Tack Glue" that they recommend for this purpose. would that be a waste of money? Will white glue or silicone caulk work just as well. <br /> <br />Has anyone run into problems ballasting their tracks with the track glued down with silicone caulk? I would worry that the ballast would come loose.
