Organization: NR
Publication Date: 3 March 2018
Status: active
Page Count: 21
scope:

This document applies to all applications of EBI Track 400 on Network Rail's infrastructure.

The EBI Track 400 Handbook consists of this index and a number of mandatory sections from both Network Rail and Bombardier Transportation.

Purpose

This document mandates the application of the sections of the EBI Track 400 Handbook which is intended to provide instruction and guidance to signalling designers, installers, maintainers and trainers on the application of EBI Track 400 on Network Rail Infrastructure in order to achieve the requirements of NR/L2/SIG/11752.

This document mitigates the risk of a track circuit being implemented in an unsafe manner.

Inclusion of documentation (including those issued by Bombardier Transportation UK Ltd) within this Handbook authorises it for use on Network Rail's infrastructure.
