Reply to comment by T_Noctambulist in TIL that when it's really cold, Chicago sets its railroad tracks on fire to ensure that trains will be able to run properly and get to their destinations on time by leebruce2
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.
