GCOR 9.12.4A


Answer: - Authority beyond the signal is joint with other trains or employees. - To couple to its train or to a standing cut of cars if track between engine and cars is clear. - Granted permission from dispatcher to pass the signal. If dispatcher can't be contacted, move 100 feet past signal, wait 5 minutes, then proceed at restricted speed.
Feedback:
Except in 9.14 territory, signals in ABS govern movements; they do not authorize movement. Note that in this scenario, the train must already have authority on the track to exercise any of these options.
