hmmm - interesting one.  there is not really any provision for failover that
I know of for T-1 size lines.  Higher bandwidth lines can be procured from
your telco with APS (Automatic Protection Switching) on SONET or MSP
(Multiplex Switching Protoection) on SDH whereby you effectively get a
backup line with literally milli-second failover in case of failure.

HSRP is *not* an option as this is for Broadcast (ie LAN) network use only

saying the above there may well be a product out there to do what you want,
although I don't recall ever seeing anything like this
