No, it's clearly been stripped by contractors and dumped in the four foot to
await collection and disposal. Some of the stuff is bagged up in cubic metre
bags, it's just the bigger stuff like the CRT monitors, signalling
equipment, pieces of catenary and some sections of rail (cut into shorter
lengths) that have been left loose.


Fair enough. Seems a pity they decided not to re-use the equipment or at
least keep it in a state whereby it could be stored for possibly future use.
