GERT8000-SS2 Iss 5.2
Shunting
Synopsis
You will need this module if you carry out the duties of a driver, guard, shunter or signaller.
Summary Of Changes
A new requirement was introduced at section 4.2 of issue 5.1 to check that both facing and trailing hand-points are in the correct position before a shunting movement commences, which will prevent any movement 'pushing through' trailing points. This has been further amended in issue 5.2 to state that the practice can continue where local instructions specifically allow trailing points to be pushed through.
