LOCOMOTIVE HAULED AIR BRAKED PASSENGER COACHING STOCKWORKING ON EAST COAST MAIN LINE SERVICES

Difficulties have been experienced due to dragging brakes on Air Brake Passenger Trains working on theEast Coast Main line. In an endeavour to identify the causes it has been decided that, until further noticeall passenger trains working over the East Coast Main Line route will be operated on a single pipe airbrake system.

To operate the single pipe system the main reservoir pipe (yellow coupling head) WILL NOT be coupledas between the locomotive and the first vehicle. The main reservoir pipe on the locomotive and the firstvehicle must remain on the respective bracket-dummies and the cocks in the closed, position.The above instructions in no way alter the regulations for working the automatic air brake on locomotiveoperated trains as contained in the General Appendix.As, however, the main reservoir pipes are not connected it follows that the reading on the gauge in theGuard's brake for the main reservoir pipe will be zero.Disabled Trains Requiring Assistance in the Rear

In the event of a train requiring assistance in the rear it will be neceSsary to revert to the two pipesystem in order that assistance procedure as laid down in the General Appendix and drivers manualBR.33056/31 may be carried out.
