| A Plasser American BDS-200 Ballast Distribution System sits in a siding along BNSF's Madill Sub. The vehicle includes a hopper for ballast storage, conveyors for distribution, an x-type plow blade, special shoulder plow blades for profiling, ballast brooms to sweep up excess ballast from the ties, water misters to keep dust down while sweping, and a conveyor to load excess ballast into a hopper car.
