May employee's relay track warrants?

• A. No
• B. Sometimes
• C. Only with permission
• D. Yes

Answer: (D)

Relaying track warrants is allowed as part of normal track warrant control when the employee is authorized to do so. An employee who is designated and trained as a relay operator can transmit the warrant to the train crew or to another control point, ensuring the crew has current authority to occupy the track. This keeps movements safe by providing timely, accurate communication and a proper record of who relayed the warrant and when. The important point is that authorization and proper procedure are followed; without that authorization, relaying would not be permitted.
