White or Pink Foam?
#11
Rob: I never think of the foam with tinfoil on it. That cut end will shed beads when people rub against it.
I made one of our layouts with a tray of upside-down L-girders covering the edges of the foam.
There shouldn't be heat concerns in the wiring if you run the layout moderately. I have heard cautions about chemical reactions between the foam and wire insulation but never seen any.

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.
