SW Iowa, Clarinda | I have 25 acres of land/pasture that needs a healthy crossing over a small creek for access. I'd like to take cattle, four wheelers, and a small (90 hp ) tractor with a large round bale across if possible.
I am looking for 1 or 2 salvage flatbed railroad cars. Length would probably need to be around 60+ feet.
Any help locating some flatbed cars to buy within reasonable distance would be appreciated.
If anybody has any other ideas, I would be open to them too, but the creek can be full and fast at points. A large tube 12' will probably not hold.
Note: Upstream 1/2 miles is a large cement culvert put in about 6 years ago on the county gravel road. I probably need to go measure the dimensions and add some because two small ditches run into the creek between there and where I'd like to cross. Basically a large orfice equation just came to mind, so I should be able to reasonably calculate the orfice/tube size needed. assuming the road doesn't break some day after a very large rain.
Thanks in advance,
Ben in SW Iowa. | |
