When you encounter a warning sign you must within two miles:

• A. Proceed prepared to stop in two miles and promptly report the occurrence to the train dispatcher.
• B. Proceed at normal speed.
• C. Stop immediately.
• D. Increase speed.

Answer: (A)

A warning sign tells you there’s a condition ahead that you must be ready for, within a two‑mile stretch. The correct action is to proceed with caution, slow enough to be able to stop within those two miles if required, and at the same time promptly report the situation to the train dispatcher. Reporting ensures the dispatcher knows there’s a hazard and can take steps to protect the line and warn other trains. This approach keeps you prepared to stop if the situation worsens while ensuring authority is informed so safety decisions can be coordinated.
