Article 6 Motive power

In addition to the provisions of article 9 of the Original Order and subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), the motive to be used on the railway may include electric-battery or such other motive power as the Office of Rail and Road may in writing approve.

Nothing in this Order authorises the use of electrical power as motive power on the railway unless this power is obtained from storage batteries or from a source of generation entirely contained in, and along with the engines and carriages.

If electrical power is used as motive power on the railways, the electrical power must not be used in such as way as to cause or be likely to cause any interference with electronic communications apparatus, if any, or with the use of that apparatus.
