Question #1: Can
a crew release hand brakes on a train that is protected by blue signal
protection?
Answer:
No. A blue signal
signifies that workmen are on, under, or between rolling equipment and
requires that rolling equipment must not be coupled to or moved.
Releasing the hand brakes may cause the equipment to move.
