I just caught the end of a Discovery channel promo for “Dirty Jobs” and it looks like tonights (Tuesday) episode will feature a track gang in one segment. I think it’s on at 8pm, check your guide for details.
Thanks for the “heads up”, Chad. I will see if I can catch this on my local cable network tonight.

“There was a time in this fair land when the railroad did not run, when the wild majestic mountains stood alone against the sun, long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the green, dark forest was too silent to be real.” Gordon Lightfoot
Then we will all know what the “dirty bird” really does all day!
I have seen it already…

It is not as detailed as one would wish for, but better than nothing, which is what is normally shown about track gangs and their work…
I agree that a lot of Discovery channel & History channel programs don’t cover a lot of detail. Too bad.
