(a)
Sketch of the equipment.
(b)
Wagons suitable for exceptional equipment are designated by:
(i)
The number of the category when all wagons included in it can be utilized.
(ii)
The number of the category and the international UIC number or the number of the category and
the initials of the owner network when only one series of wagons classified in this category is
suitable.
(iii)
The UIC number when wagons are not classified.
(c)
Envelope prepared for each wagon/load unit.
(d)
If required, special loading conditions (partial dismantling to be carried out, displacement of axis,
etc.).
(2)
The designation of category of wagons suitable for transporting an exceptional equipment between two
given points is carried out by the consigning railway network, which will compare the data contained in the
unified sketchbook and the traffic maps. It will also take into account the availability of special flat wagons
close to the loading point. Consequently, the consignor of exceptional equipment will only have to
indicate:
(a)
The departure and arrival points.
(b)
The number of equipment to be transported.
(c)
The number of sheets related to this equipment.
11. Marking of Military Equipment. The Armed Forces may deem it advisable to mark their equipment with the number
of the appropriate wagon category. This permits them to quickly determine if a load is "exceptional" or "ordinary" and to
establish the compatibility of the loads to be transported.
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AGREEMENT
12. This STANAG is implemented when the necessary orders/instructions have been issued directing the forces
concerned to put the content of this agreement into effect.
