Allen, Hi, I work with NS, This is a ballest cleaner, it should have a cover belt leading to a hopper for the dirt, a tank car for the water, and a "shooter" it putes the bigger ballest out away from the roadbed, there is a regular that followes and fixes the roadbed to the nice shape you see.

P.S. The big teeth like scoops behind the cab go down into the roadbed and scoops up the ballest and sends it to the cover belt.
