Definitely go with plywood, if it's gotta be wood. Oriented Strand Board (OSB) lacks the strength of grain, while plywood layers this inherent strength in perpendicular directions. If you cut out a thin single-track subroadbed, you may in the process "discover" a hidden plane of weakness in the OSB, since the chips are often about the same size as a single-track roadbed.
