This document is applicable to all types of heavy rail freight wagons. This document specifies the minimum requirements for ergonomic and structural integrity of steps and handrails used together to give staff access. It does not cover ladders, top platforms and top gangways. It specifies in particular the required free spaces necessary for handrails below buffer, for shunter\u2019s stand, for steps and handrails. This document also specifies their dimensions, positions, limits for durability and functionality. It also specifies the general requirements for the access to tail lights.<\/p>\n
