with Indian Railways for transportation of heavy equipment shall be
considered by the Bidder. The Contractor shall be responsible for all loss or
damage during transportation, handling and storage due to improper
packing.
As per the information available, the dimensions of OD consignment for

a)
Width of the Package

(from centre-line of rails
- 1.6 metres on both sides)
3.2 Meters
b)
Height of the package

from rail top
4.47 Metres
The above indicates the dimensions which can be normally transported on

the wagons without infringement of the "moving gauge". This is however not
indicative of the consignment which can be carried out with infringement of
"moving gauge" duly authorised and approved by the Indian Railways. There
may be difference between the "moving gauge" and the "fixed structure
gauge" and consignments infringing the "moving gauge" can be moved after
investigation regarding possible infringement with the fixed structures. As the
critical fixed structures in each route are different, consignments infringing
moving dimensions have to be individually investigated to select a route and
also determine the restrictions under which such movement is to be carried
out. Such routes selected or other mode of transport envisaged is to be
clearly brought out in the proposal wherever transport of over dimensional
equipment is involved.
The identification marking indicating the name and address of the consignee
shall be clearly marked in indelible ink on two opposite sides and top of each
of the packages. In addition the Contractor shall include in the marking
