@Danr posted:Thanks, Richie. I was looking toward further muffling track noise. I live in coastal North Carolina, about 1 mile from the ocean. I discovered that you cannot find Homesote here and nobody was going to ordered it since i only need 3 or 4 sheets. Instead I used 2x4 ceiling tiles on 1/2" plywood. It works well but the tiles are very soft and, of course, will not hold a screw. I got a box of 1 1/2" #4 wood screws and drive those into the plywood for anything that needs to be held down. I use 2 or 3 screws through the track on curves and 1 or 2 on straights to keep everything from moving around. These are driven in then backed off 1/2 turn so they don't transmit the noise.
Nice looking setup you have.
Dan, Where did you find #4 screws that are 1 1/2" long? I can't find them in that length anywhere.
