Study the following statement and choose right answer from the options given below : The distance between station ‘A’ and station ‘B’ is 12 km. Recently, 3 Nos., Auto-Signals were commissioned in between. Now, as a Section Controller, answer the following questions :-

-
A.
Approx. 6 minutes
-
B.
Immediately.
-
C.
Approx. 4 minutes
-
D.
Approx. 2 minutes
Correct Answer:
C. Approx. 4 minutes
Explanation:
In an automatic signaling territory, the dispatch of a subsequent train is governed by the aspect of the signals. When all three automatic signals between station A and station B are showing green, it indicates that at least four signaling sections ahead are clear. Consequently, a section controller can authorize the immediate dispatch of the next train, as the track is confirmed to be unoccupied for a sufficient distance to ensure safe passage at normal speed.
