A closer look to the siding would be very interesting. Is it an Abt siding? But I always thought that didn’t work with street running (see the elevadores in Lisboa).
Here are two views of the siding during the construction:

It is an Abt siding with the cable underground… it can been seen on the two photos.
Thank you for the images!
