200ft Long Conveyor. Can this be scrapped?

Let me start off with some background on my full time job. I am a structural engineer and work for the DOT on all aspects of brides including demolition and replacements.
This project is a nightmare. You will need permits from the DOT. you will most likely need to submit stamped engineering drawings to them. You will be responsible for traffic control. If you thought that was bad, the RR is 100 times worse. Again, stamped engineering drawings to them. They charge you to review them. You will have to pay for railroad flagging. You will need railroad protective insurance in an amount determined by the railroad. You will be only allowed to work when they say so.
My best advice is to run as fast as you can. This job will cost the owner anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000.
