Styro Foam Hills?

I made my hills with stryofoam and as far as derailments, just pick up the hill, there is no reason to have to attache it. I used the hydrocal to make outcroppings and it is still light enough to pick up. I bought the flat insulation boards at Lowe's about $6 for a big pack. <br />I then did the paint trick over the strofoam after carving it out. Then used the ground foam. Turned out looking pretty good. <br />One thing to be careful of, I tried using spray acrylic paint on the inside of the tunnel and it tried to melt the stryofoam. Used light coats of the spray paint and it took on a rough textured look. <br />Mark
