Manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock
What this code covers
Use this class for manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock when the main activity includes Manufacture of electric, diesel, steam and other rail locomotives and Manufacture of self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans and trucks. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
Official NACE Rev. 2.1 labels and explanatory notes are imported from the source dataset. Plain-language explanations are shown separately so readers can compare interpretation with the source text.
No child codes; this is a class-level code.
- manufacture of electric, diesel, steam and other rail locomotives
- manufacture of self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans and trucks
- manufacture of railway or tramway maintenance or service vehicles
- manufacture of railway or tramway rolling stock, not self-propelled, e.g.:
- manufacture of unassembled rails, see 24.10

What is NACE 30.20 used for?
Use NACE 30.20 for manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock when the main activity matches this scope: Use this class for manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock when the main activity includes Manufacture of electric, diesel, steam and other rail locomotives and Manufacture of self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans and trucks. Check exclusions and nearby codes before applying it to a mixed activity.
What are typical examples for 30.20?
Typical examples include Manufacture of electric, diesel, steam and other rail locomotives, Manufacture of self-propelled railway or tramway coaches, vans and trucks, and Manufacture of railway or tramway maintenance or service vehicles.
When might 30.20 not be the right code?
Review another code when the activity is closer to manufacture of unassembled rails, see 24.10 and manufacture of assembled railway or tramway track fixtures and fittings, see 25.99.
Which codes should I compare before choosing 30.20?
Compare 30.20 with 24.10 Manufacture of basic iron and steel and of ferro-alloys, 25.99 Manufacture of other fabricated metal products n.e.c., and 27.11 Manufacture of electric motors, generators and transformers when the activity description is ambiguous.

Low operational impact is expected, but systems should still store the target Rev. 2.1 version explicitly.
Confirm the target version field and update references where Rev. 2.1 is required.
