Propelling of Bailest Trains.
General Rule 179 (g), and Recording Tel. Regns.
In accordance with Rule 179 (g), authority is given for an engine to propel
a ballast train through the section on either side of any of the boxes, on the
section of line named below, irrespective of whether work has to be done
in the section or not, except that in the case of the box at each end of the
section, the arrangement will only apply in one direction, that is, in the•
direction in which the section extends.
As a rule the propelling must be confined to one section, i.e., between two
signal-boxes, but if it is not practicable for the engine to get round the train
at the first box, or the circumstances are exceptional and it is considered
desirable to propel through more than one section, this may be done on the
instructions of the Permanent Way Inspector, or other person in charge of
the work, in order to facilitate the working.
It is not intended that trains should be propelled under this authority
through more than two consecutive sections, except under very special
circumstances.
On sections of line worked under the Regulations for Train signalling by
Recording Telegraph Instruments, a ballast train must not be propelled
into a section which is already partly occupied.
