You can use push pin (map pins...plasitic headed thumbtacks) to hold the rail in position until the adhesive sets rather than track nails. The new way I lay track is put the cork down with yellow wood glue and push pins. When dry (6 hours to overnight ) I then install the track with the push pins and then ballast it in place. When the ballast is dry I remove the push pins and touch up the ballast. Less steps and less materials. FRED
