Location ELR Track ID From To GPS PSR (MPH)

2. Reason

Manual engineering work — Part B Remove 20mph ESR for track defect — Part C Raise speed to 50mph over temporary clamped joint — Part D Flooding — Parts E & G Rough ride report — Parts F & G Debris / objects — Part H

3. Part A — Authorisation

Part B — Manual maintenance

Details of work carried out Track geometry restored within maintenance limits All components replaced / effective

Part C — 20mph ESR removal

Details of defect / work carried out Defect/fault requiring 20mph ESR has been removed, rectified or repaired

Part D — Temporary clamped joint / 50mph

Rail-end gap (mm) Both rail ends sawn/disc cut? No voids under four sleepers? Clamping system approved? Fishplates correct? Rail ends / gap compliant?

The supplied form states that if the Part D conditions are not met, the ESR remains at 20mph; if the rail-end gap exceeds 50mm, speed must be reduced to 5mph.

Part E — Flooded track

Water up to bottom of rail head? Water up to top of rail head? Flood water moving? Flood water rising?

If flood water is moving and likely to dislodge ballast, or ballast has been dislodged, the supplied appendix says trains are to be stopped and further instructions obtained from Operations Control.

Part F — Rough ride

Details of defect/fault and work carried out

Fault found? Defect/fault removed / rectified / repaired? Geometry restored within maintenance limits? Part G completed?

Part G — Track support risk

Could track support have been undermined by flood/high water/landslip?

If Yes, the supplied form requires the line to remain blocked and Control to be contacted for the on-call Structures / Earthworks Engineer.

Part H — Debris / objects

Line restricted / blocked by debris from cuttings, tunnels or bridges? Details of objects found and removed I confirm the line is now clear of objects on the line
