From another article with photos:
[cs.trains.com]

" Stacy & Witbeck’s construction crew is installing new Strub cog rails, the most technologically advanced and least maintenance intensive system from Switzerland. It’s replacing the cog’s old Abt rack system."

From:
[en.wikipedia.org])

"Strub is the simplest rack system to maintain and has become increasingly popular."
