What is the correct position of fixed derails within a clear siding?
Only one derail on either end must be left in derailing position.
Derails on both ends must be left locked in the non-derailing position.
Follow the instructions given by the control operator/train dispatcher regarding the position of derails.
Derails on both ends must be left in derailing position.
Answer: Derails on both ends must be left locked in the non-derailing position.Feedback: - Anytime there are fixed derails in a siding, those derails must be left locked in the non-derailing position unless unattended equipment is left there. - Having the derails in the non-derailing position allows a train to enter and exit the siding efficiently.
