The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 087-00-11-02 UA "Fahrzeuge und Infrastruktur für mobilitätseingeschränkte Personen" ("Vehicles and infrastructure for people with reduced mobility") at DIN Standards Committee Railway (FSF). This standard describes the specific requirements and their verification for "Design for PRM use" for infrastructure and vehicles running on the Trans-European Rail Network (TEN). This document is part of a suite of four "Design for PRM use" standards that have in total nine parts.
