[quote user="jeffhergert"] [quote user="henry6"]   So lets not beat on this any further.  If one wants to run his train at 100 mph through a fog, let him.  If one wants to know what a good engineer willl do, look at the rules of safety. [/quote] OK, Henry (and anyone else who cares to answer) you are now an engineer.  The conditions are night time and foggy.  Visibility is bad but at your maximum authorized speed (let's be realistic, 50 to 70mph range) you can see when you come upon them all wayside signs (MP, whistle posts, temp speed signs,etc) and wayside block/interlocking signals.  You may not see them for too long, but you can and do see them.  You are operating on clear signals, that is you aren't required to operate at a speed that requires you to stop within half the range of vision or at the next signal.     As stated you can see the whistle posts so you know when crossings are coming up, but (if it's there) you can't see Hays' high centered tank (Texaco?) truck from the whistle post location.  So, Mr. Good Hogger how fast do you go?  Maximum authorized speed?  30mph? 20mph? 10mph?   Jeff   [/quote] Maximum authorized speed.
