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 170/3 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 side of the vehicle are closed; and

  • door controls are not positioned as required.

It sets time limits on the authorisation.
