track question

The other day I was going to work and was traveling beside a line of the CSX and noticed something that looked like a track joiner but it was a little bigger and blaze orange. There were a couply of pannels around and not much else. Does any yon know their purpose?

maybe a bad order detector or something

so that is what a track defect detection unit is the orange thing goes along with that

It could also be some sort of sensor but im not expert at this. I’ve seen them before except i think they were yellow and grey near my home.

They are insulated joints for the signal systems and crossing gates.
