Preliminary remark

On this page references are listed which may provide the user of the N-RE-Guideline with additional information. In the text they are stated for instance as [E.2]. Author and editor of this guideline have to refuse any responsibility for its content because they are not able to affect it or to check it periodicaly. References published in the web (just like this guideline) are preferred but not all are available that way. web-links can get unusable or [sometimes hopeless] out of date. If this happens please give a notification! Fortunately model railroading standards mostly last long.
