Railroad Set

It is the vertical array station near a railroad right of way monumentation real line?
This is in Farmersville Texas. The railroad are set upright in the concrete and is about 3 feet from the ground until the end of the railroad. It's the same material as the steel railroad tracks about fifteen feet away.
It's hard to say exactly what purpose was served by the vertical rail laid on concrete. Looking back to my childhood of strolling along the lines of MKT and around Denison, I have seen some of these also. The experts usually use the center line of the song as a reference point for the right of way. However, in many cases, the topic has been moved or deleted. Efforts were made to get the railroads to provide adequate monuments to determine the original baseline when the tracks have changed, so this 'post' could be a monument. A party that does not fit into this scheme is that normally there are monuments topography rods flush or nearly flush with the ground, usually covered or surrounded by concrete. Of course, the USGS are more elaborate monuments the stamp brass embedded in concrete. Perhaps the only way to determine with certainty is to make a trip to the Collin County courthouse for a glimpse of the survey registered in question. Good luck! I bet a lot has changed there since the railway was set in concrete.
