I've been reading YB+application notes, EN50126, ROGS, EU directives and seem to be getting more and more confused with may documents and terms from the ESM ideology.
To keep it simple it would be good if I could identify of who would typically do what in UK signalling project. Refering to Application Note 4 for YB Figure1;
Customer- Typically a ToC, could be the IM or a non railway company like Royal Mail.
Project- IM with their contractor i.e Network Rail using Westinghouse as their lead signalling contractor.
Safety Authority- I don't know who this is???
ISA organisation- Could still be NR if internal, otherwise a separate company approved by the notifying body i.e. Connell Wagner or Lloyds Registrar may have provided this service for projects I've been involved with. The ISA would work with the Project before the Project applies for approval to the Notifying Body.
Notifying Body- this would be the ORR giving Safety Authorisations as per the ROGs
Do I have this correct and what organisation would take on the Safety Authority?
Thanks for any help
