Default More cable theft

IE services bollixed again today according to the RUI tweet machine. Maybe time to give something like this some thought, if the trials prove fruitful?

Richard Jones, business manager at Frazer-Nash, believes the system could ‘revolutionise low-cost signalling’ on lines with low traffic densities or where there is no money for conventional modern signalling systems. Another possibility is as a temporary back-up when technical failure or cable theft render main systems inoperable.
Wasn't IE going to be rolling out marked cable? I guess that will take a while to make a dent in the existing stock.
