Christopher Oscuro, 21, and another man who has not been charged, allegedly broke into the Coates hire site at Langwarrin South yesterday and after commandeering the machines and flattening a $65,000 work shed, they left the earth movers on fire, Melbourne Magistrates Court heard.
Mr Oscuro is also accused of leaving his car on nearby railroad tracks which was subsequently hit by a passing goods train about 4am, the court heard.
One of the ruined machines was worth $200,000 and the other was valued at $300,000, the court was told.
Also destroyed in the trail of destruction was a $5000 generator belonging to Coates, charge sheets before the court state.
Mr Oscuro, who sat in court sporting a tattoo down his left arm, had a part-time labouring job and worked nights at Coles, the court heard.
The young man was released on bail and, holding a hard hat and other possessions in a prison-issue plastic bag, raced through a TV media crew outside court.
As well as theft, arson and reckless conduct, Mr Oscuro was also charged with driving whilst disqualified.
Mr Oscuro has also been charged with using methamphetamine, or ice, as well as marijuana the day before the machinery heist at the centre of the charges.
Chief Magistrate Ian Gray described the incidents as an "extremely high seriousness of actual offending" but released Mr Oscuro on bail, on condition he live with his mother in Pakenham, abide by a 10pm to 6am curfew and report to police twice weekly.
He was told not to associate with any co-accused person in the matter and to return to court on March 1.
Mr Oscuro had a falling out with former friend Corey Worthington - who gained national attention for his nonplussed attitude in hosting a MySpace party at Narre Warren which attracted 500 riotous teenagers.
Mr Oscuro last year claimed Mr Worthington had spat on his car and attacked it with a bed post outside his house, as well as the pair having a disagreement over a girl.

Another example of how the government is supporting crime, by setting the example that there are no consequences to one's criminal actions.
This is a deliberate policy employed by governance to degrade the youth of the masses, ultimately into slavery. This is done at a level that most of the general populous are not conscious of.
Corey Worthington shot to fame by being promoted by the mass media, to let other sheep follow him. As a result he was recruited by a promotions manager, who made more than 10 time the amount given to Corey.
Another puppet in the corporate arena.
