  • Pink foam is too expensive, so just how messy is white foam? Lets find out when I cut it to shape on my new basement layout.

    Ah Windex, what can’t it do? I like your sense of humour. Layout looks great so far. That crack in the fascia would drive me nuts. Hopefully once it’s painted no one will notice. As long as you paint it the correct shade of coffee. Lol. Can’t wait to see more progress. -Mark

      Thanks. The foam surprised me, expected a blizzard.

    Try to keep your track risers at no more than 2% and keep any elevation change away from track corners. Ask me how I know.

      Thanks Gary. Not sure if I have enough distance on any one wall for a 2%, so I will at least have a wide bend if it's still on the incline.

      I did some experimenting today with the 6 axle conrail loco. It does not like 18 radius, so I need to go bigger, which means a slight change of plans.

      I am thinking 26 and 28 but use 20/22 if just a switcher steel mill

    Hi. Did you screw into the foam board for the trim?

    • @ScottRails

      The trim is screwed into the wooden edges of the beams. I will be changing the fascia at some point, so it's not attached to the foam at all.
