Two questions I need answers for

Dear numerous people, <br />Sorry, I thought scanners which could transmit were fairly common among railfans. I have a Vertex VX-150, which was recomended by another raifan. While chatting extensively with another fan, his scanner could also transmit. You can see my scanner here: [url]http://www.universal-radio.com/catalog/ht/3187.html#feature[/url]. <br /> <br />Where exactly does the authority to transmit end? For example, if Person A is a GCOR certified engineer on UP, can he transmit legally on BNSF? Obviously the volunteer crews of steam fan trips have permission to transmit when they run an excursion, but would they be allowed to when not on an excursion? Can a crew deadheading take a track warrant or something similar for the main crew? <br /> <br />Also, about the locomotive cab, is there a specific section of GCOR as to whether or not a locomotive's cab is acceptable? I mean, closing down a locomotive's cab because the toilet doesn't work seems to me to be rather silly. <br /> <br />Thank you for all your answers so far. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Daniel Parks
