Progress on Double-Tracking in Mountain View ~ Thursday, July 16, 2015
Some interesting equipment here. I like the improvised ballast hopper.
Also notice the special wire draped over the overhead and clamped to a rail. This must be to keep workers safe in case the power is accidentally turned on--by producing an instant (and probably spectacular!) short circuit that would blow a circuit breaker somewhere.
