96. Where the
traffic at a station is worked under special instructions, the
Signalman before lowering the signals for a train to enter the
station, must satisfy himself that the special instructions have
been complied with, and that the line is clear to the point to
which the train has to run, but if he be in doubt, or if there be
another train, vehicle or vehicles, at the platform to which the
train has to run, he must stop the train, and, except where
calling-on signals are in use, verbally instruct the Driver to
proceed cautiously, and must exhibit a green hand signal, held
steadily. Where a calling-on signal is provided this must be used
instead of giving the verbal warning and green hand signal.

following. |
97. When a train is
allowed to proceed towards the rear of another train which is
moving forward, the Dirver of the second train must follow
cautiously and at such a distance as will enable him to avoid
colliding with the first train in the event of its being stopped,
and he must not pass a signal which has been lowered for the first
train until it has been replaced to Danger and again lowered.
