Conditions for coding intermodal loading units, combined transport lines and wagons
This IRS sets out the requirements for the coding system intended to ensure the compatibility of ILUs loaded on adapted wagons or bogies with the permissible profile for combined transport lines and the safety requirements specific to combined transport.
Appendix H of this IRS provides:
- the procedure for the recognition by UIC of the conformity assessment bodies that are in charge of coding according to this IRS,
- the list of the conformity assessment bodies that are recognised by UIC,
In particular, the present IRS sets out the requirements for:
- the coding of the lines on which CT trains are operated,
- the coding of the intermodal transport units and
- the assignment to the CT wagons of the wagon compatibility code and, potentially, the correction digits.
It integrates in full or in part the following UIC leaflets:
- UIC Leaflet 596-6
