It would all depend on if you were on a "system" gang, wich travels around the entire system (hence the name) doing a specific function, dropping spikes & plates, etc for rail replacement projects, laying rail, replacing bridges, that type of thing, or on a local MOW gang, whose territory may encompass 50 to 100 miles of track, and completes the "honey-do" type of projects, from replacing broken rails (at all hours of the night), tightening bolts, filling the rail greasers, etc. and generally doing the day-to-day work to keep the track in shape. Like tjsmrinfo said, you can look on the RR websites for info and "definitons" of what the advertised jobs would do.
