Blimey, I'm not sure I'd ever have worked that out. I'd say the clue is slightly dodgy not just because of the railway thing, but also because once you take off the "RY" from "cleverly" you're left with "clevel" - so the "and" is appended rather than swallowed, surely.

I'm a bit slow off the mark here, but did anyone else catch Brendan's anti-war themed puzzle in yesterday's Guardian? Not a hugely tricky solve, but absolutely terrific stuff, I thought, with some really pleasing clues.
