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 168/1 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 vehicles are closed; and

  • some doors do not have manual door control devices.

It sets time limits on the authorisation.
