Pink or Blue foam?

[Anonymous]

I'd greatly appreciate the name of the store in San Rafael that sells extruded foam insulation and Homasote, the one at the end of Anderson. I'm about to start building my dream system, and it sure would help!

Ask the staff at the Burbank store who they are selling to, 4 pallets at a time. If somebody is building homes with it and are near you, talk to the carpenters or site foreman. I've had great success scrounging through (yeah, I know...) their dumpster boxes for throw-away pieces, with their permission. I've got some as big a 3'x3' which they threw out as scrap. That's a lot of foam board for an HO layout. And the price is definitely right!

Does any store sell this stuff online for shipping? If woodland scenery can, why can't others?

Our entire club layout is covered with the pink foam board and our mountain range was built up with the stuff. I seriously doubt that it is that great a hazzard. Btw, I'm in central Florida which has lots of the stuff available in the local home improvement stores.

California has outlawed this due to cancer or some animal or something.
As for not using it for train layouts, I wonder if that will cause a lawsuit?
