3.3.8 Work train / track machine involvement

It is critical to ensure the inclusion of work trains or track vehicles as a component of proposed works requiring a track possession is communicated clearly to the NPM at the time a possession request is made.
This will allow lead times for pathing across other networks can be met and to ensure that, where required, sidings can be cleared.
Failure to notify the NPM of the inclusion of work trains or track vehicle movements within the boundaries of a possession at the time of application may lead to the possession application being declined, or to an approved track possession being cancelled
