The brief

The vehicles must be capable of: hauling/rescuing/piloting all passenger and engineering vehicles, operating reliably between passenger services at speeds up to 120 km/h, interfacing fully with TVM 430, KVB and GSM-R signalling/telecoms systems.

They must be able to provide their own power for propulsion (hybrid-options permissible) and should be demonstrated as compatible with all characteristics/limitations of NRHS-managed infrastructure (e.g max 22.5 tonnes/axle, GC gauge).

The appropriate recognised bodies shall have demonstrated them as compliant with all relevant TSIs/NTSNs/NTRs and CSM REA requirements.
