They could borrow/hire the dummy from the Tramway Museum at Loftus, but
would have to do a lot of work to put in a cable system and points and a
siding to put it in.  Then they'd have to propel it back down the hill.  I
think they'll spit the dummy on that one! (bad joke)

Perhaps a better arrangement would be to carry a tow rope, flag down the
next passing STA bus, and slip its driver $20 to pull the tram up the hill.
