Authority and Permission, something I have trouble decifering between...[%-)] And to answer your question Mark, the CSX trackage i run on is all CTC controlled by SB dispatching desk in Jacksonville, FL. As for the runner situation, I know that several trains can share the runner at the same time, and that we always receive a Restricting Indication when entering the runner; which brings me to another question. If a train receives a Restricting Indication entering a track, the crew must operate the train under the indication reguardless of track speed. And, with the runner having several switches accessing the yard being lined against you, plus sharp curves that you'd have to operate at restricted speed anyways, why doesn't CSX just drop the speed limit down to 10 or 15mph??? Why even put the 25mph in there?
