I use a pin vise and the appropiate sized drill bit to make holes in the ties and roadbed.
Ditto.
Works on foam board as well, I use a very small bit, just through the ties, and straight pins, through roadbed and into foam board, just to hold alignment. (Adhesive from ballasting will hold down track as well, once the straight pins are painted and weathered with the rest of the track, they are flat out impossible to see!)
