Went to down town Stuttgart and got 1/10" blue foam to raise to tie level and planned to get 1/100" styrene for street surface glued on blue foam and fit under rail head. No 1/100" styrene in store so I got 1/100" card stock. That was a bad mistake...
The card stock crimped from the glue (and would do even more from paint), snapped out of the rail head and bent into the sky
I had to remove everything, ordered 1/100" styrene at a mail order store and have to wait until, it arrives. Will do some ballasting in the mean time.
