Purpose

This catalogue contains Supplementary Instructions when maintenance is directly managed internally within Network Rail the existing Company Standard to which it pertains will not be wholly appropriate.

The changes are to be considered made to the existing Company Standard published by Standards Development Process only where maintenance is undertaken directly by Network Rail employees.
