08 kmph.
Correct Answer:
A. 10 kmph
Explanation:
The speed of a train entering a terminal goods yard is typically restricted to 10 kmph. This low speed limit is a standard safety measure used in railway operations to ensure that the locomotive engineer can maintain full control and stop the train within half the range of vision. Navigating yard tracks requires extreme caution due to the presence of hand-operated switches, stationary equipment, and personnel working in the area, all of which necessitate a significantly reduced pace compared to mainline travel.
