Having drilled holes to allow plenty of movement for my turn out wire rods and dropper holes I wanted to fill and ballast over them but still allow the rods to move and be able to repair any droppers should they ever fall off.
I have used Blu Tack. Simply push into the holes, on the turn outs you will have to activate the motors a few times to make sure the tack is moved out of the way of the rod action, then sprinkle ballast over the top.
Gently push ballast down a little with the non bristle end of a paint brush, this will stop it being hoovered off.
Job done.
