Robert: Metal laid across the track will usually not act as a jumper to the track circuit. It takes a very good electrical connection to do this in order to avoid a lot of false occupancies caused by wet track. A hi-rail or track machine, which is a pretty heavy item, will usually not activate the signaling system. <br /> <br />Almost any large, heavy item can take out a brake hose. Often it's a tree down over the track or rocks fallen onto the track. Any time there's a high wind, especially with wet soil, and trees down are to be expected. The largest I've personally run over at speed (50 mph!) was 6" diameter, which amazingly did not get a brake hose but dented the P42 that I was riding pretty well.
