You Say Cables, I Say Camels

Oh...oh. That made me snort with laughter.

I'm translating an article that has to do with trains, and was just looking around to see if there's a specific technical term in English for the German "Kabelschacht" (basically just a "cable shaft"). One site didn't have that term, but suggested that perhaps I had meant "Kamelschlacht."

Which would be a "camel slaughter." Ja, similar.
