What are the solar panels by the side of the track for?

We Answered:

The solar panels are most often recharging battery back-up systems for any electronic devises near by, such as trackside detectors, signal relay bouses, signals, crossing protection and so on.

In the more remote areas of the country, where electricity lines have not yet reached, they are the primary source of power for these types of devices, which in fact are bettery operated.
