Description

This research intends to investigate the discrepancies between the maximum vertical dimensions within different gauges, which could create safety issues where such exceedances occur in the vicinity of live overhead wires. The results of this piece of work needs to provide robust evidence to inform the creation of a technical note and potential changes to gauging and electrification standards.
