Which action is required when reporting clear of a track warrant limits?

• A. The track warrant number being released
• B. The limits being released
• C. Both the track warrant number being released and the limits being released
• D. The time the train cleared the limits.

Answer: (A)

When you report clear of track warrant limits, the key thing you communicate is which warrant you are releasing. The track warrant number identifies the exact authority and the block it covers, so the dispatcher can update the system and free up that section of track for others. Saying the limits themselves were released isn’t necessary because releasing the warrant inherently covers the limits associated with that authority. Time of clearing isn’t required in this specific report, since timing is typically recorded in the system separately. So, stating the track warrant number being released provides the precise, unambiguous update the dispatcher needs.
