Now what you could do(and I think this would work ok) is use the Styrofoam as a substrate for the mountain. So in other words you'd glue the Styrofoam in place and carve/cut it into roughly the shape you want and then cover the foam with rock castings. E It won’t work well for carving.

The only problem was that is was so HEAVY! The last layout I built was of sculptamold with carboard supports, much lighter than plaster of paris. This methods looks best though, I'm going to try it onthe new layout I'm planning. Yes, you can do that, that was the standard procedure in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s.

I want to build an N scale version of my HO scale layout, but I want to know how much dough I would be buring. Is N scale cheaper than HO scale?
