Explanation:
A rail possession is the term used to define a temporary shutdown of part of the rail network, involving either the complete closure of a section or one or more running lines, in order to carry out essential upgrading or repair works. Possessions are typically scheduled to occur over weekends and/or holiday periods to minimise disruption to rail users.

Contracts generally grant the contractor exclusive possession of the site until practical completion when a handover meeting takes place and possession reverts to the client (see handover to client).

Where the Employer fails to give possession of the site to the Contractor on or before the date stated within the Contract, it is a breach of contract and, if the failure to give possession continues for any significant time, it will be a material of the contract.

Explanation:
Possession
A period of time when one or more tracks are closed for maintenance. For the duration of the work, a person in charge of possession (PICOP) has control of the line. When work is complete the possession is relinquished and control of the line handed back to the signaller. "Wikipedia, Glossary of Rail Transport"
