  1. The other railroad's supervisor
  2. Their supervisor
  3. Operating rules, timetable, and special instructions of the railroad they are operating on
  4. Safety rules, air brake and train handling rules, and hazardous materials instructions of the railroad that employs them

GCOR 1.14


Answer: -Safety rules, air brake and train handling rules, and hazardous materials instructions of the railroad that employs them -Operating rules, timetable, and special instructions of the railroad they are operating on
Feedback:
TYE Safety, ABTH, and Hazardous Materials Instructions are BNSF documents. Those rules must be followed regardless of the railroad operating on. The GCOR applies to hundreds of railroads and is not a BNSF-specific document. Another railroad can amend those rules with special instructions just as BNSF does. When operating on another railroad, their timetable must be followed as it provides the information and instructions to run on that specific territory.
