ABTH 10.3A


Answer: Verbal authority from the control operator.
Feedback:
The dispatcher has to apply blocking on each end of the Track and Time limits to protect the crews working inside. Track and Time authority allows a train to occupy those limits, but the dispatcher will still need to grant authority to enter them account the signal blocking.
