OK didnt know how to word the question but what should I do to hold up track that is on a grade. I am re-building my layout into a figure 8. Should I use wood, concrete, ballast? An ysuggestions would be helpful
You can use bricks or blocks.
You can use wood retaining walls.
Or, you can bix your rocks and ballast with Portland Cement, spread it and wet it and wait.
I use all three.

Bridgemasters sells retaining walls that might to the job.
