I saw these 2 machines on the tracks nearby today and although I'm assuming they are for track maintenance, I would love to know for sure. One had some kind of clamping device that would drop down and come together over something on the ties. I think.

Those are track cars. Any unusual trains like that are most likely on the MOW team
