On https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/nor...o-23131431 it says,
"It is not a quick job to repair the damage. We need to put scaffolding in place, turn the power off and that would affect a much wider area than just these two stations."
So it seems they just left the wires on then, that was more about the wall collapsing on a train or the wall collapsing and a train running straight into it.
