@@dragonheart7901. You probably don't know this. If that water managed to get into cleaning supplies or sewage, the water can become extremely toxic and then kill you. This happened in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina struck back in 2005: the water was able to penetrate cabinets full of cleaning supplies and it also dragged up sewage from things like sinks and bathtubs. Basically, around that time, if you ingested the water in any way, it had a real chance of either incapacitating you or just killing you outright.

@@kensmilepachi3313 Tracks are built on the ground normally. A lot of base strata work is done to increase the density and longevity of the rail bed. Sometimes short piers are put into this process where the ground is just not acceptable even with the bed work. But, when you are basically building a serial bridge - raised track. You build deep piers and girder the rail bed - this is a magnitude more resistant to anything nature can throw at it. It is much more costly but actually builds a bit faster, laying bed takes time because there are so many layers. Building a bridge is piers beams girders and supports and you are done. So, when you have an area like this one that sees a "wash" from seasonal rains, you want that track up off of the ground. It cost a lot more to build, but you only build it once. A conventional track bed would have to be rebuilt the entire affected length every year and over the long term, that is a lot more expensive.

I’m South Australian & for NYE 2009 we went camping down the river in our local area. It was quite a sloped ravine area & we rigged up a swing on this really high branch in a massive gumtree. I moved interstate a few weeks later but that year they had a huge amount of rain. About 12months later I went back for a visit with some friends & went out in the tinny. We were cruising along in the boat and noticed a tree branch in the water with a rope floating about. I suddenly turned to my mates who just nodded & went ‘yup, it’s our campsite. We’re floating above it’ It was completely GONE. Totally under water. You wouldn’t have even known that there was a ravine below it with a ginormous gumtree below.

Could be worse though, in 1956 the area had the biggest flood ever experienced. In our area the river rose 12m (40 feet). Some other areas were FAR worse. Shit was completely under water. It’s quite amazing though because if you boat down the Murray River, you can see the old signs nailed into the trees where the water rose to which was WAAAAY up high. I tried to paste a link to show but it won’t work. If you’re interested Google “tree of knowledge loxton South Australia” & click images.

Great video. Almost 50 and lived close to Oh. River. Many times i have told people. Never underestimate water!! It's more powerful than people think. Ky Rt8 and train tracks disappear under river each year.

Some places have dirt so hard, compacted and lifeless that you can rap your knuckles on the surface and it sounds like your tapping ceramic. This is where small, frequent rainwater harvesting earthworks from onsite materials starting in the foothills/ higher areas would improve the soils and available groundwater. It would reduce catastrophic lowland flooding while increasing water supply over a longer period. That video shows a lot of water that runs off carrying good soil and materials, while the rest evaporates off instead of absorbing deeply into the soil...

Reminds me a lot of that train scene in Spirited Away where it rains and it looks like an ocean covering the tracks. except having a much more beautiful and peaceful sort of vibe to it and it had so much more color.

@@wtbman of course. I just think it's a remarkable feat of engineering, to think that a train weighing who knows how many tonnes travelling at the speeds it does (for a whole bunch of total kinetic energy) still does not derail on a track that isn't quite perfectly aligned for it. Amazing.
