Movements on a track not governed by ABS, DCS, or interlocking rules must be made at?

• A. Restricted Speed
• B. Normal Speed
• C. Full Speed
• D. Caution Speed

Answer: (B)

Movements on track with no automatic protections in effect use Normal Speed. This is the baseline speed for ordinary operation when there are no ABS, DCS, or interlocking rules governing the track. It means you proceed at the standard operating pace appropriate for the track conditions and signals you’re under, rather than slowing for a restricted or caution scenario. Restricted Speed is used only when you must be able to stop within the distance you can see or when a rule requires a slower pace; caution Speed applies near certain signal situations; full Speed is only permitted when conditions and signals clearly authorize it. So, Normal Speed is the correct choice.
