Summary Of Changes
Section 4.2 on ‘Train running’ when there is flood water has been revised to correctly explain the conditions that must apply. The flood water must be ‘not moving in a way that is likely to have dislodged any ballast’, rather than being ‘still’.
The changes form part of the suite of general updates issued annually which are intended to improve understanding and application of the content of the Rule Book and provide opportunities for duty holders to operate more efficiently.
