14. Pumping sleepers - Railway sleepers that are lacking support due to a mudhole or track bed anomaly.
15. Mud hole - Fouled railway track ballast to the extent that one or more sleepers are surrounded by a mixture of mud and
degraded ballast rather than clean free draining ballast. The weakened track formation below the ballast can lead to a loss
of track geometry both vertically and horizontally.

2.2.3 Types of mud holes

There are two main types of mud holes:
• Fouled ballast mud holes
• Soft formation

2.2.6 Degradation of soft formation

Some weaker formations become soft when wet and depress to form a puddle under the ballast.
The ballast sinks into the formation and this leads to loss of track geometry.
