Yesterday I cut the pieces to fit and screwed them down to the stringers. Then I laid the track out again, and marked the tabletop for where the Homasote will go. It was certainly easy to roll the unit away from the wall 15 inches or so to get in there! Worked great.
That may be the shiniest train table top I have seen! That keeps eyes focused there so as not to see the ugly base. 
On this end, I am going to cut out the board to have the Shavers Fork of the Cheat River flowing underneath this bridge. It is similar to the real one in Parsons, West Virginia that is now used for a bike/hike trail. Oh, that is one of my two MTH Premier H9 Consolidations sitting on the track for fun. I just received this one yesterday from a Forum member. It is a PS-2 with 3-volt board. My other one is a PS3 #839.
