It sounds like I'm only slightly further along than you. I recently had great success installing Woodland Scenics' Track-Bed on top of latex painted, EPS foam on my 3'x6' N-scale layout. I have curves varying from 9-3/4" to 19". <br /> <br />I found that splitting the Track-Bed along its partial pre-cut midline made a smooth installation a snap. First, I assembled my layout on the painted foamboard. Then, I marked the centerline of the ties with dots. Removing the layout, I connected the dots with a pen, then glued down one-half of the Track-Bed at a time. The straight sections were very straight, and the curves molded perfectly. <br /> <br />Good luck, <br />Greg
