I was planning on using some double sided foam tape on Gonou. I haven't bought any tape yet but that was my plan.

Hmmm, just so happens I bought 2 rolls yesterday, because I thought it might be useful...

I used a gel type superglue. Layed the track out connected but loose, then lifted slightly and smeared it under with the tip of an exacto knife. Didn't discolour the plastic and stuck nice and solid.

An advantage of double-sided tape is that it's easier to take up the track again if you have to change something, or fix up a mistake Embarassed

i managed to secure it yesterday: I cut the tape in half lengthwise, and secured inside the roadbed, so the tape isn't exposed. Thank you all for your help and advice,

Double sided tape is very strong. If you want to remove the track later heat it up with a hair dryer.

I should mention that when Eishindo sent me the Mountain Train demo, it came with a 106cm length of flex track and a bag of tiny blackened self-tapping Phillips head screws. I noticed they also used these on the garden railway set, so I am guessing these will be available when flex track is available to all. I haven't tried them on the standard track, but will see if they work.
