Couldn't a remote control crawler (Like a bomb squad robot only bigger) drag a hose in to put water on the fire? <br />[/quote] <br />Part of the problem is that you may not be able to see the fire. The idea does have merit in terms of getting foam apparatus (high-expansion foam) closer to the seat of things, which might help smother it. In the end, though, it might just be something to keep people occupied until the fire burns itself out..... <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Okay Larry, what do you think about a couple of fire cars with foam units being shoved thru by an RC loco. Maybe take a gon with a blade to push debris out of the way. Also have some spray bars in an arch to put on a goor layer of foam.
