The signal/point cabling at new street in Birmingham is the textbook definition of cable gore. Just bundles on bundles snaked alongside track, bulging out of channels meant for them... Is it any wonder there's been a half dozen point or signal failures over the last few weeks leading to significant delays for commuters? To say nothing of how much left over track sections, sleepers, gravel bags and other material are strewn alongside the lines, left for years.
