I'm building a coal country "N" scale layout, my first since my teens, 30 years ago. I have a base of 1x3" with 1/4" ply on top, and then 1" pink foam on top of that. I'll be using Scenic Designs ready made foam inclines and grades. Check out there site. or better yet if your Local Hobby shop has their Design Book buy it. I think I paid $5 and it really made it all make sense. If your willing to pay a little more for their premade stuff, it will shave alot of time off of DIY and it is really well thought out. Also check the links in many post here. There are lots of those who have been there, done that and are more than willing to share. Good luck, keep us posted. Dave
