The next step was to add the concrete area for the lumber yard, for this I used smooth it, never used it before and learnt some valuable lessons:
1. Instructional videos should be watched prior to doing something you have not done before!
2. Foam track bed is not a 'hard surface'
3. It's not failure it's a learning experience...

As a result:

Now do, I try again with smooth it or try another method?
I think the problem is that as I was at the edge of the layout I need to shutter up at front so there was a former for the smooth it, at the edges I had used plastic l shaped strip, which worked well but at the front I used card, this did not work. Maybe I was trying to bigger area?
