2.4 “Spot
Bid Services” |
TTP257 |
January 2009 |
“17. The Panel took cognisance of the fact
that FL was currently operating Train Slots 4R60/61 as Spot Bid
Services. Network Rail grants the
right to operate such Spot Bid Services by virtue of the Offer that it makes
in response to a Spot Bid (in conformity with Condition D4.5). However, under the terms of paragraph
2.5 of Schedule 5 to FL’s Track Access Contract the right to operate Spot Bid
Services is time constrained (“The duration of any Spot Bid Services shall
not exceed six months”). This
limit applies even if the Spot Bid in question has been described as a
“rolling Spot Bid”; this is a “custom and usage" term that has no
defined contractual status. ” (TTP257) |
