I seem to recall reading somewhere that there was a problem with supplies of cork, the raw material. Not surprised that we're feeling that shortage in the hobby.
I had to use cork roadbed for the Ntrak module, and I also used it back in the late fifties, on my first layout, and also used it on my HO, HOn3, and N, test board. I still prefer Homasote, as a roadbed, and plywood as a sub-roadbed.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
