Such as? I believe there is a new idea about Wrong Direction Movement; the new concept is in all cases tp carry on to the next station. No change there yet, except that it now needs to be authorised by the Service Manager, and that the rear tripcock does not need to be cut out. Any points will still need to be secured and an Operating Official (as the person in charge) is still requied, to walk from the station in the rear, after ensuring that adequate protection and handsignalmen have been appointed. In cases where there is a signal failure at a station starter there are also new rules. The intention is that that these new rules will speed up service. Only on stations/lines with working Platform Edge Doors or In Cab CCTV. The Train Operator will still need to receieve specific authority from the person in the Signal Operator role if it is a Semi Automatic, via Signal Post Telephone (if it works), Station Supervisor or on the Northern and Central via Cab Secure Radio. Even then, if points are involved they must be secured by Scotch & Clip - unless the Train Operator can see a Route Secure Visual illuminated. |
