Thoroughly stumped on the remaining four. Any hints would be greatly appreciated, but please don't just give the answer, as I would prefer to work them out. Simply in need of a little nudge in the right direction, if possible.
All answers must contain at least one silent letter.

57: Painstaking passenger gets in the way. (12)
59: The crest presents a lofty problem. (7)
61: ..... sounds like a well-rewarded job is on track. Straight up! (5,4)
67: After forlorn hope had warning police were near and flew from the fire. (7)

Many thanks.

Thanks Cashier. I have been thinking of that for ages, but I can't make it fit cryptically.
Google the meaning of the last 3 letters
67,one of the four letter words in the clue is an anagram.
59 I'm not 100% convinced but thinks of roosters
57 A long way to spell road!
Sorry Danny -missed yours! (for 57)
Forget my suggestion for 59 - its not going to be a "problem"
It has a silent letter and concerns crests and lofts, but isn't a problem!
jj, no problem, the more hints the better.
61 I can think of an answer but only if you pronounce the first word with a Scottish? accent
Sherpa Mail ??
jj.61.I don't think you need a Scottish accent as in a normal pronunciation the second letter is silent.
Thanks Danny - now I've reread the clue again it fits as stated. I was thinking cryptically and trying to make the first word sound like "not bad" whilst the actual job description works anyway!

Thank you to all. Still baffled by 61, but it gives me something to work with. I had nothing previously, so it's very helpful.
61. Use one to check that your wallpaper hanging is accurate
61 Wiggers - that is a better answer than mine!
61, first word sounds fruity.
jj, Hope we didn't send the OP wrong.
Question Author
Got it! Amazing, thank you. Great hint, Wiggers99. Only a couple left now. I think I'll attempt to unravel them on my own.
57. Another word for "painstaking" plus another word for passenger (think of a taxi passenger) and the whole word means "a way" (as in street, road etc
