What are those people doing to the train tracks? Almost looks like they are taking out pieces of the rr ties but that doesnt make sense.
Not a pleasant job, thats for sure.

Maintenance on decrepit rail ways. Keeping the grave bed from falling apart. Replacing worn-out and rotting ties.

I’m assuming they’re collecting pieces of coal.
I can remember my grandfather telling me that he & his brother waited for the coal trains to go by because pieces fell off, and they would bring the pieces home to their mother for the stove.

I think maybe the old rotted railraod ties are being broken up for firewood.
