What is the indication for a North Bound move at DLB SX 988.1?

The indication for a North Bound move at DLB SX 988.1 is "Stopped in Block." This signaling means that a train is not authorized to proceed because the block ahead is occupied or otherwise restricted. In railroad operations, the "Stopped in Block" indication is critical for ensuring safety, indicating to the crew that they must stop and cannot continue until a clear signal or indication is given.

In practice, a "Stopped in Block" signal ensures that locomotive engineers understand they need to maintain their position and be prepared to respond to any further instructions. This is an essential part of maintaining safe train operations, preventing collisions, and ensuring that all movements are managed effectively.

The other options represent different statuses that do not accurately apply in this context. For example, "Proceed" would indicate that the track ahead is clear, which is not the case with a "Stopped in Block" situation. Similarly, "Clear Signal" conveys that a train can move without restrictions, and "Proceed with Caution" implies there are potential hazards ahead but still allows for movement, neither of which aligns with the condition being described at DLB SX 988.1.
