1. All persons connected with the Railway shall be held responsible for making themselves acquainted with such of the regulations as apply to them, and for acting in accordance therewith.
2. All workmen on the Estate shall be liable to such fines for infraction of the Railway Regulations as are herein set forth, and as the Estate Office may see fit further to order.
3. All men employed on the Railway Staff shall promptly report any infraction of the Regulations which may come under their notice, or they shall be themselves liable to any penalty which may attach to such offence.
4. All workmen on the Estate are particularly requested to remove any impediment, such as sticks or stones, which they may see on the line; and in case of any serious block, such as a tree fallen across the rails, to give prompt notice to one of the Railway Staff.
5. No wagon or car shall (under a penalty of 1s.) be moved by hand on to or along the main line, except by special arrangement with the engine-driver; and the term “main line” shall be understood to include every part of the railway not being a siding or within a terminal yard.
6. Hand shunting of vehicles on sidings shall be done carefully, so as to avoid injury to the rolling stock; but no vehicle shall be moved at all except by an authorised person.
7. No vehicle shall (under a penalty of 1s.) be left in such a position on a siding as to interfere with the free passage of other vehicles along adjoining rails.
8. If it is necessary to throw over time weight of any point-lever, this shall be done gently, and the weight shall always be returned as soon as possible to the position in which the white bar thereon is uppermost. Point levers of which the weights are pinned in one direction, shall not (under a penalty of 1s.) have the locking pins tampered with.
9. No material of any kind whatever shall (under a penalty of 1s.) be deposited within a distance of two feet from the rail on any part of the main line or sidings.
10. No heavy weight shall be dropped upon the rails or sleepers, and no carts shall cross any part of the line except where a proper crossing of double rails is provided. But in the terminal yards light loads may cross the rails where the ballast is for that purpose made level with the top of the metals. Any unintentional damage to rolling stock or the line shall be at once reported to the engine-driver or foreman platelayer.
