Railway applications - Infrastructure - Rail mounted railway maintenance and inspection machines and associated equipment - Explanation of machine type and compliance, including acceptance processes

This document covers machines fitted with rail wheels that are used for the construction, maintenance,
inspection, repair and renewal of railway infrastructure. It is also applicable to machines used for
emergency rescue purposes on railway infrastructure.
NOTE Inspection of the infrastructure includes measurement.
This document explains the different modes of operation, classification of machines and which standard
covers the technical requirements. There is also guidance on the compliance process provided to
explain the design review process of different legislation, how these can be combined into one process
(to avoid duplication) and achieve a common understanding of what the design review is achieving.
