15.2.3If a SPAD has not occurred, you may allow the train to proceed toa more convenient place so that you can:
• get the driver’s answers to the questions on form RT3188 Activation of TPWS other than when a signal has been passedat danger (SPAD) (see the example at the end of this generalsignalling regulation 15)
• complete the rest of the form• report the incident and send the form by fax or electronically, or
dictate it, to Operations Control.
15.2.4You may then allow the train involved to continue its journey aslong as the driver tells you:
• the TPWS on-train equipment has not been isolated
• the driver is fit to continue.
15.2.5If the driver tells you that the TPWS on-train equipment has beenisolated, you must carry out the instructions in section 34 of module TW5 Preparation and movement of trains: Defective or isolated vehicles and on-train equipment.
15.2.6
If you have any doubt about the correct working of any TPWSequipment involved in a TPWS activation, you must treat it asdefective and tell Operations Control.
15.2.7If you know that a defective TPWS trackside sensor is incorrectlycausing a brake application, this general signalling regulation 15.2does not apply. You must instead carry out the instructions insection 15 of module T1B Movement of trains during failure of, or when working on, signalling equipment.

Examination of the line
20.1 When the line is to be examined
20.1.1Where the train signalling regulations require a line to beexamined, this can be achieved by one of the following:
• you can see the line is safe for trains to pass
• getting a competent person to check the line is safe for trains topass
• getting the driver of a train passing over the affected line tocheck the line is safe for trains to pass.
20.1.2If a train is used for this purpose, the instructions shown in thisgeneral signalling regulation must be carried out.
20.1.3If broken, distorted or damaged rails or broken fishplates arereported, you must not use a train to examine the line. You mustinstead carry out general signalling regulation 17.1.
20.1.4If subsidence has been reported or there is suspected damage toa structure below or above the railway, you must not use a train toexamine the line. You must instead arrange for a competentengineer to examine the line.
You must not allow any train to pass over a line so affected untilthe competent engineer has assured you that the line appears safefor trains to pass, even if only at reduced speed.
20.1.5If an underline bridge has been reported as being struck by a roadvehicle, you must not use a train to examine the line. You mustinstead carry out general signalling regulation 17.2.1 or 17.2.3.
If an overline bridge has been reported as being struck by a roadvehicle, as well as carrying out this general signalling regulation20, you must apply the instructions shown in general signallingregulation 17.2.2 or 17.2.3.

20.2 Before the examination can start
20.2.1If two signallers are involved, you must both reach a clear understanding as to what is to be done.
20.2.2You must be sure that the last train to enter the affected sectionhas passed, complete with tail lamp, beyond the stop signal aheadof the affected portion of line.
20.2.3Where a person is immediately available to accompany the driver,this should be done. The examination should not be undulydelayed waiting for someone.
During darkness, fog or falling snow or when the affected portionof line is within a tunnel, the driver must always be accompaniedwhen:
• you have definite information that a person has fallen from atrain
• the overhead line equipment is to be examined.
20.2.4 Any type of train can be used to carry out the examination of theline. However, if the overhead line equipment is to be examined,you must if possible arrange for a diesel train to be used to carryout the examination.
20.2.5You must not allow a train with a failed headlight to examine theline during darkness, fog or falling snow, or if there is a tunnel inthe section, unless a portable headlight is fitted to the front of thetrain.
20.2.6If the overhead line equipment is to be examined using a train,you must also carry out the instructions shown in module AC

When it is not known which lines are affected, all lines must be
examined.20.2.8 Where the affected portion of line is in a tunnel
Where the affected portion of line is in a tunnel, you must notallow another train to enter or pass through the tunnel while a trainis being used to examine the affected portion of line.
20.2.9 Trains on unaffected lines
You may allow trains on all other lines not affected to continue torun. However, during the time an affected line is being examined,the driver of each train on lines immediately next to the affectedline must be:
• told what is happening
• told the locations between which the adjacent line is affected
• instructed to pass the affected portion of line at caution
• told to report as soon as possible if anything is seen to be
wrong.
You must continue to do this until any train being used to examinethe affected line has passed over the affected portion of line.

• tell the driver why the line is to be examined
• reach a clear understanding with the driver as to which portion of the line is to be examined.
20.3.2You must instruct the driver that when the signal is cleared or yougive permission to pass the signal at danger, the driver must:
• proceed at caution over the affected portion of line, beingprepared to stop short of any obstruction
• if the affected portion of line is in a tunnel, not to exceed10 mph through the tunnel
• if the overhead line equipment is to be examined, or the line isbeing examined because of a reported track defect, not toexceed 20 mph
• report the state of the affected line at an agreed location beyondthe affected portion of line.
20.3.3If the examination is being carried out due to a report of anoverline bridge being struck by a road vehicle, you must also makesure the driver is aware of the exact location of the bridge and tellthe driver:
• to stop short of the affected bridge, and
• unless there is obvious damage to the bridge or there is debrison the line, to pass under the bridge and not to exceed 5 mph.

20.4.3 Not allowing another train to proceed
After the examining train has gone beyond the signal protecting theaffected portion of line, you must not allow another train to followuntil a report is received stating the line is clear and safe for trainsto run on.
If the driver tells you the line is obstructed, you must immediatelycarry out train signalling regulation 4.
20.4.4 If the train being used to examine the line needsto return to the end of the section at which itentered
If the driver needs the train to return to the end of the section atwhich it entered, this must be done as shown in module TW7Wrong-direction movements.
The train must not be cancelled until it is clear of the sectionconcerned.
If the driver tells you the line is obstructed, you must immediatelycarry out train signalling regulation 4.
20.5 Resuming normal working
If the driver of the train being used to examine the line reports thatthe line appears to be safe for the passage of trains, you mayresume normal working over that line.
However, if the line has been examined for a reported track defectyou must tell the driver of each train that is to pass over theaffected line:
• a track defect has been reported
• to proceed at caution over the affected portion of line notexceeding 20 mph.
