California roadbed is homasote that has been milled to an exact thickness. I have a friend who used it on his last layout and was very happy with it. If you like homasote, the only drawback I can see is cost. Here is a link:

I used the branchline thickness Homabed and am very pleased with it. I spike my Walthers/Shinohara track, and it takes spikes very well (although you can nail or caulk the track if you prefer).

11 years after starting this thread, I hope the OP decided on a roadbed.
