Are you just making things up? I can’t find anything about railroad crossings tearing up fire hoses. From the fireman who posted the image:

Hey, this past week our funny photo went viral throughout the whole world. Thousands of shares and likes in many different countries! Once and for all: the picture was taken in Belgium, in a small village called Bornem. After a minor intervention, we had some time left near the railway to make this picture. Since there were no trains running at all for a week due to maintenance works, we can state that our joke was a real success! Thanks to our entire team, 2nd sqdn Firefighters Bornem!

“I’m a random SAR volunteer and I approve this message.”

On that note: Support search and rescue; get lost!

they did this because if the train derails they get thousands of new patients

Possibility to derail?
