May be funny to some, but definitely not to the railroad. A cut hose is a small problem compared to a derailment.

I didn’t,– laugh that is.

There are a lot of folks out there that would do this without thinking otherwise. They learned that this allows car wheels to go over the hoses and that is all they know. So they think train whells will do the same thing. Sorry an accident is going to happen. Newman

Whoever the “genius” is that set that up, ought to lose his job immediately.

Sure, the wheels of the train would first crush this object, but the debris resulting would most certainly force the forward wheels off the track.

I can’t imagine there’s a firefighter in the world who would believe this to be a workable setup.

It could, like the movie Unstoppable disintegrate those blocks too. Of course that was a movie. Same as the engines taking the siding and crashing but the main was still set straight…… What was wrong with that scene. I’d say something this time would be coming off the track……..

The Firemen who laid that hose should be severely chastised!! The ONLY way to cross the rails with a hose is UNDER the rails and between the TIES and even that is VERY dangerous!

Big problem for train crossing.
