Well, I got to thinking more about it, I'm definitely going with 1/2" plywood (well, down here they call it 15/32 but that's basically the same stuff (5 ply), my joists are 12" apart, but considering where I'll need access in the long run, I'm certainly going to have access hatches instead of climbing on top. Only issue I really have will be the hidden double tracked mainline and part of the reverse loop section, which will be out of reach from the edge of the tables, but my plan is to have that track as bulletproof and derailment free as I possibly can, so I won't have to go back there but every so often. I have plenty of room under the layout to access the back side, just have to cut in some 'hand holes' to be able to reach things. Shouldn't be too hard if I hide the holes with buildings, instead of complete removable sections.
