Northeast Operating Rules Advisory Committee (NORAC) 300 Practice Test

Before authorizing an opposing movement in Rule 261 territory, which Form D line must be issued to the disabled train?

Form D line 8 Form D line 2 Form D line 9 Form D line 1

Correct Answer:

Form D line 8

Explanation:

Form D handles protection and authorization when a train is disabled in Rule 261 territory. When an opposing movement must be allowed, the instruction on Form D that must be issued to the disabled train is the line that explicitly authorizes that opposing movement while keeping the required protections in place. This is the specific instruction the crews rely on to coordinate movements safely under Rule 261. The other lines on Form D carry different instructions or conditions and do not satisfy the need to authorize an opposing movement in this situation.
