I've used Homabed for more than fifteen years with no problems. Glue it down (only as much as necessary to hold it in place) with either white (not carpenters') glue or Goo or adhesive for bllue foam. Give it a liberal coat of any cheap latex paint (your basic ground color for underneath the scenery or some gray) to seal it. Then lay the track and balast it. Now problem holding spikes. I have found it stable in a family room setting with no separations or problems. Using white glue (or the others) makes it easy to scrape off and relocate if you change your layout plan. Hope this helps. Build it slowly and enjoy your layout..
