GUARDS OF PASSENGER TRAINS KEERING GOOD LOOK-OUT.
General Rule 177 (a).
With reference to Rule 177, clause (a) : a number of Guard's compartments
are now running on the system in vehicles which are built to the
full load gauge width, so that it is not possible to provide side duckets
and this fact will, of course, be taken into account in applying the instruction
that Guards must keep a good look-out. ( O . 6409).
