# The Rail Vehicle Accessibility (South West Trains Class 170/3 Vehicles) Exemption Order 2000, Note: Explanatory note


(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.
