What's wrong with that?  Covered both tracks so water won't be cut off...     :think1

Slice and dice. 'How long would you want your hose, sir?  About track width would be good.'   :rofl

A Firey (cousin) checked it out and agreed if the train had a good head of steam it probably would work  >:()

A steam train? now who pulling who's leg.
Either a derailment or cut the hose in half. Those ramps are designed for vehicles to drive over, not trains....

Biggles, as we know, is a learned man and can see the logic of it all  :whistle  and as for the "head of steam" I did take a certain amount of leeway here, I admit...  :grin
