Gluing Track To Foam

[rrinker]

I'm on my second layout using latex caulk as the adhesive. Both were on extruded foam bases. Last one I used Woodland Scenics roadbed, this time I'm using cork. I use the caulk for everything - roadbed to base, track to roadbed. It's a fast and easy way of building. In one spot I ended up with too sharp of a vertical curve, and it was no big deal to slide a putty knife under the ties and rais the low side with some shims under the track. I'm just starting to ballast, using rubbing alcohol as my dilution/wetting agent (soap didn;t work for me - I have hard water), and it has had absolutely no effect on the caulked track.
