Yep you are correct as to each his or her own. My layout on foam is now 6 years old and I have replaced a small section. No problems with foam in any way. Did not deteriorate or move. Some was glued down most was not. Easy to remove Ballast and trackwork from when moving sidings. No screw problems as I had mentioned. But that is why they make GMC and Ford. Each his own. I am simply stating my PERSONAL experiences as I have used both over my 66 Plus years from O to HO and back to O. Some people do not like the fact that when you kneel on foam it leaves dimples. That is true but I know even my own yard is not flat, even after building my house and leveling and landscaping the yard ourselves. Opinions differ as much as material used does. Some like 2X6 framework some like Mianne and some prefer 1X3. Been in all camps there too. But hey I like camping. LOL I just enjoy the end product which is running my trains in ways I want and having a real Blast doing it. That joy and the GREAT JOY of sharing are what are real important to me. Happiness is hard to find in these times we live in now.
Move the throttle to notch 8 and letum rip!
