[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by lrenee</i> <br /><br />I am just about ready to start re-building my N-scale layout. Suddenly I am receiving conflicting advice as to how to start. One says get a 2" piece of styrofoam to place over the table and cut it to form scenery and to put the track on top of it. Another says the heck with that, just put some cork roadbed down under the track and wire it up and go. And I am certain that there are more ideas than these two. As I do not have loads of $$, what is the most reliable way to get the track down in a manner where I can eventually add scenery and everything else without spending an arm and a leg. <br />Thanks <br />[/quote]There's more than one right way to do most things. You need to decide by price shopping and how good a hunter/gatherer you are what to do for YOU. If you live in a city and don't have a truck maybe foams the way to go. If you live in rual or suburbia and have a truck lots of wood can be found for free. Like the guy who found free white bead board, it's not the best choice, but it's free and very usable in layout construction. FRED
