Sounds reminiscent of one of the London cable companies (can't remember which one it was). All other UK cable companies used to site equipment in street cabinets, but this one copied an american firm which put the equipment in underground pits. They forgot that it rained a whole lot more in the UK and eventually gave up that practice.
