The arch is made from a Kraft Parmesan cheese container bottom. One of the three R's, reusing!
And the forced perspective is done by creating essentially a cone that comes to a tip at the back (the tunnel is only a few inches long) and the light cutouts actually get smaller and closer together the further into the tunnel you go.
And ngauger, I am working on the turntable pit and hope to post a few photos in the next day or so.
Looking at your wonderful vehicle tunnel, I had a case of deja-vue.
I could have sworn it was the vehicle tunnel from 'Back to the Future' [# 1 I think] and I was looking for Marty and his Hoverboard escaping from Biff, just before Biff runs into the truck carrying horse manure.
Or maybe I watch waaayy to much TV.
