Which item is NOT part of the three items that must be included in the train dispatcher's release repeat?

• A. Authority number
• B. Release time
• C. Name of employee releasing
• D. Date

Answer: (D)

The essential idea here is documenting who, what, and when when a release is issued. The release repeat must capture three things: the authority number so you know exactly which track warrant or directive is being released; the release time so you have a precise moment (date and time) of when the release becomes effective; and the name of the employee releasing to show accountability for the action.

The date itself isn’t listed as one of these three items because the release time already records the moment of release, which includes the date. Including a separate date would be redundant.
