Crosstie replacement is a vital infrastructure maintenance project, but must be done without disrupting train schedules. In high traffic lanes where work windows are short, Norfolk Southern deploys its “Tie and Surfacing Super Gang”. An army of skilled crew members equipped with high-production, very specialized machines are deployed; old worn out ties are replaced, correct track geometry is restored and rock ballast is properly contoured. This rehabilitation is to be completed in the shortest period of time in order to keep the NS mainline open for traffic. In this program will show this process, identify the unique machines and the procedure to achieve these goals.

  1. Dan

    A fascinating “behind the scenes” look at modern railroading. At nearly two and a half hours on two disks, this is a detailed look at what MOW really means. The videography and editing are creative and well done and, while there’s no narration, on-screen graphics do a nice job explaining the equipment and the process. You’ll gain a new appreciation for the skill and work that goes into keeping the trains rolling. Five enthusiastic stars.

  2. Mow Fan

    A must for a MOW fan. Excellent Video good close ups to see what each machine is doing. My only suggestion would be to change the color of the subtitles as I found them hard to read.

  3. Everywhere West

    It’s like actually being there – except with subtitles! We get to see this very focused MOW crew do their job with an amazing amount of specialized equipment. All the equipment is named and detailed. I am very impressed with this new producer.
