You stated that you were going to attache the track directly to your "hard board." That implies you are not using any roadbed which lifts the track off the board a little. This difference is small in size but big in appearance. You may be modeling a 'back woods' logging operation which does not really need the roadbed but any main line track will be elevated a little above the surrounding ground. Now is the time to add the roadbed and then add the track on top. Latex caulk can be used for both with pins or weights to hold it in place while the caulk dries. Give it at least a couple of days to dry.
