Dear All,
Supplemental Agreementsto make amendmentsto Schedule8
1. On 18 September 2018 the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) approved the Supplemental
Agreements (SAs) to the track access contracts (TACs) between Network Rail
Infrastructure Limited (Network Rail) and:
Colas Rail Limited (Colas);
DB Cargo (UK) Limited (DBC);
Direct Rail Services Limited (DRS);
Freightliner Limited (Freightliner);
Freightliner Heavy Haul Limited (FHH) and
GB Railfreight Limited (GBRf)
under section 22 of the Railways Act 1993 (the Act). The agreements were formally
submitted to us on 8 August 2018 and 29 August 2018. This letter sets out the reasons
for our decision.
Background
2. The purpose of the SAs are to amend Schedule 8 of the TACs to reflect the installing
of equipment for the European Train Control System (ETCS). ETCS transfers part of
the signalling equipment from physical signals on railway infrastructure to digital
signals on board each train. The parties agreed to the principle that the liability of the
parties under Schedule 8 should be no greater or less during the transitional stages of
ETCS implementation.
