Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order authorises the use of any rail vehicle known as Coach Type A, B, C, D or E which complies with a specified design, on the East Hayling Light Railway, although the vehicles do not comply with certain requirements of the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 because:

  • no audible warning device is fitted to passenger doorways;

  • priority seats and the space they occupy are not of the required size;

  • there is no passenger information system;

  • some vehicles do not meet the wheelchair space specifications;

  • some doorways are not of the required width; and

  • some passageways are not of the required width.

This Order also imposes conditions on the authorisation.
