Not exactly. It’s gas burners at the track switches. Nothing is burned…they’re just heaters.

But it burns gas and it also doesn't!

It burns gas, it doesn't burn the tracks. You don't say your car burns up the roads just because it burns gas in the engine. (burning up tires is something different!)

It's actually quite damaging to the tracks, even if they don't melt or turn to ash. They only use this method in a couple of interlockings for this reason.
That said, it looks like the trains are driving through Hell and that's amazing.

There wouldn’t be fire if nothing is burned.
