I've got some line laid on breeze blocks which have a concrete 'footing' (yes, almost certainly over-engineered!), with other sections running on decking boards covered with roofing felt. The garden is heavy clay (we had to go down 3 metres for our extension footings 
) and seems to shift a lot in places -I'm currently planning a re-lay on a section that looks to have dropped 25mm or so over four years). I have to say that whilst I like the idea of laying a blockwork base, I'm happier with the timber sections; the latter are also easier to level.

Hillwalking, chickens and - err - garden railways.
Thanks for all the details here and above. I did use similar methods to the one your suggested earlier the quality of the decking I used must be suspect. We store the NWGscale layout atva timber yard which has pressure vessels for treating timber and so I may be able to get la decent quote.
I have used horticultural grit extensively on and under the double track layout layout, to date around or above 1/2ton of the stuff!
