Chris,

No berms or containment walls around the tanks?  Or was this safety procedure after your era?

If there's ever a leak, it just runs off the edge of the layout.

Any updates on this?  One of my favourite layouts I'm following!

I'm kinda late to the party, but I've just gone through your thread and all I can say is WOW! Seriously good stuff here. One question: Was the decision to put sheet cork on top of the foam for sound deadening purposes or did you have something else in mind?

I used to lay track right on foam and shape the foam to form the roadbed profile. Then one day I glued down cork and was able to sand it perfectly smooth so I've been rolling with it ever since. Also I used ACC to glue down the track, ACC and foam don't get along well. (I could have used a different glue)  I guess in the end the cork was not necessarily needed.

I like em separate so they don't get confusing. Plus you never know when I will pick this layout up where I left off  ;)  (goes off to work on another layout)
