This standard supplies the identifiers, adopting the rail-relevant subset of UN/LOCODE. The document specifies the principles of compilation, the structure of the code and of the code table, the maintenance and management of the table, and then the table itself, which occupies almost all of the 443 pages: for each location, the five-letter code, the name, the country and the subdivision.
