<p>[quote user="BRAKIE"]</p><br><p>There's another side of the coin that is quite often overlooked and that is the type of track we want to model..</p> <p>And seeing track is a model to here is some examples:</p> <p>Modeling a urban industrial branch there will be very little raised roadbed like you would see on a main line..</p> <p>A small yard area wouldn't have any raised roadbed.</p> <p>Tracks going into a industry,around loading/unloading areas wouldn't have raised roadbed.</p> <p>Around engine service areas,engine houses,team tracks etc.</p><p>[/quote] </p><p>And on small shortlines too...the track on my layout that was "recently rebuilt" has roadbed, but the track that has "been in disrepair since we bought the line from Guilford in 1983" is laid right on the foam and is built to look like it's in bad shape. <br></p>
