Homasote VS Pink foam

[NW Modeling List]

The dealer listed in Christiansburg closed in 2009.  I bought all they had for my HO layout.  I also have an O Guage layout with a Homasote over plywood base.

  Since there are a lot of NWHS members in Central and SW VA, a check centered on my home zip of 24121 returned dealers in Lynchburg and Christiansburg.

    There are a lot of California suppliers listed at this site.

    Homasote 440 is carried in stock by several Home Depot locations in northern VA and there may be a source near you in CA as well.

    for another homasote source, try Menards, look for any local lumber 
    suppliers as well, if not in stock, perhaps orderable.
    Menards has them also cut in 2x4 boards, perfect for my modular work.



    I have not seen it in my local Home depots.
