# The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (Midland Mainline Class 170/1 Vehicles) Exemption Order 2001, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order authorises the use of specified rail vehicles which form part of Class 170/1 diesel multiple-units trains, although they do not confirm with certain requirements of the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 because:
there is not the required exterior visual passenger information system, and
there are not enough wheelchair spaces.
It sets time limits on the authorisation and imposes conditions.
