A relief crew boards a train that has been tied down on the main track in CTC. They did not have a briefing with the previous crew and do not know what the previous signal was. Once they depart, how must they proceed?
Proceed at 20 mph until the leading wheels have passed the next governing signal or the end of the block system
Proceed prepared to stop at the next signal until the next signal is visible and that signal displays a Proceed indication
Proceed at restricted speed until the next signal is visible, that signal displays a Proceed indication and the track to that signal is clear
Restricted speed until the leading wheels have passed the next governing signal or the end of the block system
Answer: Restricted speed until the leading wheels have passed the next governing signal or the end of the block systemFeedback: When the previous signal is unknown, you must proceed at restricted speed because you don't know what is out in front of you or the condition of the track ahead.
