[Tagging] How to map a sliding section of the Alaska Pipeline

This isn't a big issue but Warin's post about rails used to move big
objects.  Then someone replied with some illustrations of gantries and that
triggered my curiosity.   There is a short section of the Trans-Alaska
pipeline that crosses a well-known fault line where it is attached to
slides to allow lateral movement in case of an earthquake. I split the
pipeline way and added a note to the section but that probably isn't
visible to most data consumers.

Any ideas?
