International Timetabling Process Handbooks and Path Request Forms

RNE has published the following documents:

• Handbooks on international timetabling processes for customers which, in general, are Railway Undertakings. These handbooks describe the processes involved in the co-ordination of the international timetable in all its design phases, from the planning of the annual timetable to ad-hoc path requests in the running timetable. These processes are applied by all RNE Members.
• Pathfinder process guidelines, which clearly define roles and responsibilities
• Path request form for international train path requests and studies which is accepted by all RNE Members.
