The purpose of this document is to establish a code of good practice for stakeholder activities related to the operation of distributed power freight trains.

This Code of Practice covers activities related to the operation of distributed power freight trains. It is intended as a guidance document and contains high level functional recommendations rather than prescriptive requirements.
This Code of Practice is intended to cover most types of distributed power trains and considers manual distributed power, as well as wired and radio frequency type distributed power systems (WDP, RFDP).
