Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order authorises the use of specified rail vehicles forming Class 170/2 diesel multiple-units, although they do not conform with certain requirements of the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 because warning sounds are emitted whenever the passenger doors in the sides of the vehicles are closed and passenger operation of some doors is by means of beam operated door sensors. It sets time limits on the authorisations and imposes conditions.
