Here's a cool video I found by TXDOT on rebuilding the South Orient rail line in Texas. There is some good footage of MOW equipment in action.

Enjoyed this and appreciate it!  Spent several years not far from the Orient Line in Oklahoma and Texas.  Although lightly used even in the 1960s and 1970s, it still was one of my favorites.  Other than Farmrail in OK, there is not much left of it north of Sweetwater TX.
