English translation:operating restrictions

Explanation:
Welke restrictions zouden dit kunnen zijn? Speed, capacity,operating...

Er staat in de tekst 'om welke beperkingen het gaat'. Oftewel er is er meer dan een. Ik denk dat 'operating restrictions' het wel redelijk dekt.

train speed restriction

Explanation:
If you read what it says on:

"Tijdens dezelfde inspectieronde stelde de Inspectie vorig jaar tevens overschrijdingen
vast bij de inzetbeperking van geduwd reizigersmaterieel op
een bepaald wissel in Amsterdam Centraal. Genoemd type trein mag hier
slechts 25 km per uur rijden. In 7 van de 13 gemeten gevallen handelden de
machinisten niet naar deze inzetbeperking"
The term seems to refer to the speed allowed at certain points.

Train speed restriction springs to mind:

"Both main lines are now operational between Chicago and Omaha, including the bridge over the Cedar River in Iowa. With restoration of crossing signals last night, UP has increased train speed restriction in this corridor to 40 mph. "
