R J Corman installed those steel ties here in Frankfort when they did their tunnel enlargement project last year. The track through the tunnel is in a crossing signal circuit. I think they have insulating pads between the ties and the rail. Train crews complain about the "weird" sound going through the tunnel as the steel ties make popping and cracking noises.
