Nice shot! I`m curious what are those numbered posts meaning along the track?
We call them "picket". It denotes the ordinate of the railway line and is placed every 100 meters. In Poland everything is analogous http://rail.phototrans.eu/14,117631,0,PESA_111Db_.html (left side), only a kilometer is indicated additionally.
Only the beginning and the end of kilometer is indicated - you can see in the distance, high metal column with a sign. This is inconvenient, but nobody wants to change the principle
