Hi Folks
I am a newbie to modular railroading. My previous layout was a moderate sized double deck affair using traditional L girders, plywood/homasote roadbed carried on wooden risers. I’ve followed the links found on this forum and used all the great information available so I now have two module boxes 30” x 72” built and filled with foam board. However, I can find nothing so far on the next step, laying down roadbed. Does one use a plywood base with homosote over the foam? Does one glue just homosote to the foam (what about warping?)? Or do you just glue the track directly to the foam? How does one treat elevation, which I will have since I am doing a logging scene? Any suggestions or leads to information would be greatly appreciated.
