GCOR 14.3

A train operating with a track warrant to proceed from MP 1 to MP 100 is instructed to report passing MP 50. Once reporting past MP 50, how is the authority considered up to that point?


  1. It is considered void from MP 1 to MP 50.
  2. Track warrant authority between MP 1 and MP 50 is still in effect. Providing that information to the dispatcher is informational only.
  3. A track warrant may not be voided in increments.
  4. Track warranty authority between MP 51 and MP 100 is now void.

Answer: It is considered void from MP 1 to MP 50.
Feedback:
- When a crew reports past a specific location, track warrant authority is considered void up to that point. - A proper job safety briefing between crew members is crucial in determining which location the rear of the train has cleared. - Conductor and engineer must communicate with dispatcher when reporting clear of a track warrant or past a certain location.
