A non-exhaustive list of site hazards includes: un-gated crossings, ground-level manhole covers, moving trains, road vehicles and close proximity to running railway lines. All visitors will be briefed on site hazards during their site safety induction or their location specific safety induction. 10.1 Control of Level Crossings Level crossing are numerous and located all around the Nairyah Yard complex. These crossing are open crossings with signage alerting road vehicles of the crossing approaching. All users of road vehicles are to remain vigilant when approaching a crossing The shunting staff will ensure the crossing is safe to proceed over by blocking the crossing with a road vehicle. Alighting from the road vehicle, then prevent any vehicles passing over the crossing whilst the train is making the movement. The train driver will not pass the crossing until assurance is guaranteed from the shunter that the crossing is safe to proceed over with the train. 10.2 Crossing Over Wagons by LMS staff in order to gain access/egress the Fuel Shed At times when trains are occupying tracks through the fuel shed on either YT2,YT3,YT4, and/or RAT1 these can block pedestrian access/egress for LMS staff required to walk to/from various areas of the fuel shed. When this occurs, the following process must be followed to avoid a train being moved whilst LMS staff are crossing over the wagon in either direction. LMS staff in the first instance MUST contact the Yard Foreman and ask if the wagons to be crossed are going to move. Once the yard foreman confirms that the wagons will be remaining stationary, the LMS staff can proceed to cross immediately following this confirmation. If a period of more than 10 minutes elapses between the request being made and the crossing taking place then a new request to cross must be made by the LMS staff to the Yard Foreman. This rule applies when crossing in both directions IE from Fuel Shed to Road Side and/or from Road Side to Fuel Shed. A request to cross from Fuel Shed to Road Side must be made by the LMS member of staff to the Yard Foreman by using a mobile phone. Mobile phones should not be used in the proximity of any fueling equipment. Document No.: Rev.

Prior to any rail movement within Nairyah the SAR PIC (or nominated deputy), is to formulate a plan for the movement. A Job Brief will be conveyed to all staff involved with the proposed movement. Before the movement commences, a clear understanding must be reached between all parties involved with the proposed rail movement. Everyone involved must be fully conversant with the requirements of the movement prior to the movement starting. Should circumstances change and the plan for the rail movement requires amendment, provided it is safe to do so, the movement must cease immediately. A revised plan must be formulated, and the amended Job Brief conveyed to all parties involved with the movement. The SAR PIC is to follow the Job Brief and also ensure that there are no personnel working (or other movements taking place) on adjacent roads. Any personnel in the vicinity are to be advised that a shunt movement is taking place they are then to move to a position of safety and remain there until the SAR PIC informs them that it is clear and safe to return to their work. The locomotive horn is to be sounded prior to starting a shunt movement in any direction. The sounding of the horn is to be of a duration, volume, intensity and repetition appropriate to the circumstances and appropriate to the distance over which it is to be heard. 12.4.2 Job Brief The contents of the shunting plan will formulate the job brief, the minimal (and non-exhaustive) list of requirements for the Job Brief will be as follows: Who is controlling the movement and the means of communication What is the requirements of the proposed shunting movement The tracks, the rail movement will be using for the movement.

The protecting turnouts for Nairyah Yard are 16P06 and for south departure/arrival, the switch will be set away from the mainline The protecting turnouts for Nairyah Yard are 16P05 and for north departure/arrival, the switch will be set away from the mainline All switches within Nairyah are set away from any buildings and to avoid any crossings. OCC will take control of zone 1 2 or 3 during departures or arrivals of trains to/from the yard. Control is handed back to the SAR PIC once arrival or departures of each train has been completed. In order to operate an LFOP, the SAR PIC (or nominated deputy) must request control of the respective Zone (1 or 3) from the OCC. All other Zones remain under the control of the shunting teams within Nairyah although the OCC can resume control should they wish to do so. Prior to operating any LFOP the SAR PIC (or nominated deputy) MUST ensure the clamps of the relevant switch are removed and that all staff are clear of the switch. Prior to authorizing any movement over the switch:, o The operator of the switch must ensure the lights for the relevant switch have stopped flashing and are steady o Once the integrity of the switch is confirmed a clamp is required to be fitted to the switch which will prevent any subsequent movement of the switch whilst the movement is traversing the switch o The operator of the LFOP must ensure that there are no train movements being conducted when the switch is being operated o It must be ensured that all locomotives are clear of axle counters (minimum of 10 meters away from the switch) when the switch is being operated The SAR PIC (or nominated deputy) will then authorize the movement over the switch. The driver will repeat the instruction back prior to making the movement Should the intended function of the LFOP or switch not take place due to a fault, the movement MUST NOT START. Any fault that occurs (IE lights going out/loss of detection) to the LFOP during any part of the movement, then the movement MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY and the fault reported via the Yard Foreman to OCC 12.6 Shunting Movements All communication between the OCC and the SAR PIC (or nominated deputy) must be clearly understood and repeated back. A Job Brief must be carried out prior to the shunting activity taking place. A clear understanding must be reached between all parties prior to any movement taking place. The route MUST be set and confirmed for any movement within Nairyah Yard. The SAR PIC (or nominated deputy) must ensure that all switches are set correctly (and clamped) before any movement over them. The Driver/Pilot is to Document No.: Rev.

Once the Train has been brought to a complete stop, berthed and secured, the Main Line Driver and Pilot will disembark the lead loco and will be collected by the LV driver. 3. Lead locos are then detached by the shunters and placed into Fuel Shed for Inspection unless otherwise directed by LMS. Yard Foreman will advise LMS (via e-mail) once Locos are placed at the designated area 4. Wagons are set up for inspection by the Yard Loco driver by either using the inbound DP Loco or GPL Loco to supply Air and Train Line power to the wagons. 5. Once set-up for inspection, WMS will be advised by the Yard foreman (via e-mail) that the wagons are ready for inspection. 6. WMS Team will install the relevant depot protection (as per section 12.8) and will inspect all wagons in the train consist. 7. When the wagon inspection is near completion, the WMS team will request to the Yard Foreman (via e-mail or phone call) to remove Train Line Power in order for the WMS inspection team to carry out a continuity/resistance check to the wagons power cables and connections. 8. Once the train inspection is completed, the WMS team will apply the relevant color cards to the wagons required to be removed (see APPENDIX E). Prior to the WMS team leaving the wagon inspection location they will remove the depot protection. WMS will then inform the Yard Foreman that inspection is completed and then advise of the wagons that need to be removed on the wagon cut out form that will be handed over by the WMS team leader. 9. The Yard Foreman will allocate a shunt team who will shunt the train in accordance with section 12.4 of this LWA. The shunt team will remove the wagons detailed on the wagon cut out form and collect replacement wagons from either the STT lines or direct from the WMS lines and add them to the train in order to form the train with the booked number of wagons. 10. The Yard Foreman will advise WMS (via e-mail) of the good order wagons added to the train and the position of the good order wagons in the consist by completing a Wagon Cut-In form (See APPENDIX K). 11. At a convenient time the removed wagons will be taken to an area of the yard as indicated by the WMS team. This is detailed on the wagon cut-out form. 12. During the shunting process (9), once the train is 2.5 x hours from completion, the Yard Foreman will call OCC to arrange for the train crew who will be required to depart the train from Nairyah Depot once the train is ready. 13. LMS will advise the Yard Foreman (via e-mail) of the Fleet Number of each locomotive assigned to the departing service. When applicable the position of where the locomotives should be situated on the train will be advised by LMS. 14. Once the wagons have been shunted (wagons cut out and replacement wagons attached), the required number of locos as advised by the Yard Foreman will be collected by the Yard Loco Driver from either the LMS area or the Fuel Shed and then attached to the train in the required formation. 15. Once Locomotives are attached, the train will be set-up by the Yard Loco Driver. 16. A Pre-departure check (PDX) will be completed on the train by the yard shunt team and the form contained within Appendix G will be completed. Document No.: Rev.

Once the Pre departure check will be completed and the train is free of all defects, the departure route can be set by the Yard Shunters and the train can be handed over to OCC by the Yard Foreman or Shunt Team Leader 18. Once the Loco Driver and Pilot arrive, they will be handed the relevant train paperwork and DG equipment (if required) by the Yard Foreman and they will then be taken by the LV Driver to board the lead loco. 19. A minimum of four shunters (two each side of the train) will place themselves in a position of safety in readiness to conduct a Pre Departure Roll-By examination. Ground staff will set-up the GSMR radios and test to ensure there is a good radio communication link with the driver/pilot at this stage. 20. Train will depart the depot whilst receiving a roll-by examination. The train can be stopped on departure at any time if any defects are identified on the train as it is departing. 13.1 Instruction to be followed when processing a by-pass / underframe inspection train in Nariyah The handling of by-pass trains that need to call into Nariyah will result in different departments interacting with each other which will require a greater coordination and control of multiple activities. By-pass trains may call into the yard from the north or south, depending on the situation. These generally call in as some attention is required to either Wagons and/or Locomotives. Locomotives may also be fueled when by- pass trains call into Nariyah for attention. A process for coordinating Locomotives requiring attention on a by-pass train is essential as locos will be fueled, whilst technicians attend any fault or inspection required and the train may need to be moved (more than once) to accommodate any inspection or attention the DP locomotives may require. There is a handover process in place which serves to coordinate these processes and ensures trains are only moved once the processes have been completed. The attached handover form is to be used to control the activities when dealing with these trains and the procedure in place is as follows:- 1. The Yard foreman will complete section 1 at the top of the “Locomotive Underframe Inspection Fitness for Service Handover” checklist. 2. The Yard foreman will hand this over to the LMS technician and loco fueling attendant. 3. Both the locomotive fueling attendant and LMS technician will apply the required protection – “Not to be moved” boards and “Stop Boards” then carry out the tasks required. 4. Once the technician and fueling attendant have completed the required tasks, they will complete section 2 of the form, remove the protection and hand this form to the Yard Foreman. 5. If the train requires to be moved in order to place the DP locomotives over the pit within the fuel shed, then the yard Foreman will retain this form and instruct the shunters to move the train. 6. Once the DP locomotives are placed within the fuel shed, the form will be handed back to the technician and fueling attendant (as applicable) by the Yard foreman. 7. The locomotive technician and fuel attendant will again apply protection as above with a “not to be moved board” and “Stop Boards” then carry out the required tasks. 8. Once all of the tasks are completed and the train has been made ready to depart, the technician and fueling attendant will remove the protection and complete section 3 of the form and return the form to the Yard Foreman. 9. The yard foreman will complete section 4 of the form to detail the instructions issued to the shunter for the shunter to depart the train. 10. Once the process has been completed and the train departs Nariyah, the form is to be retained within the train pack as a record. Document No.: Rev.
