Develop a separate track warrant theory recertification examination for train controllers, which covers all relevant track warrant rules and regulations and other instructions included in reference manuals and books.

Develop and introduce a checksheet for use by train controllers when dealing with disabled trains, to include such detail as: - the exact metrage of the disabled train and how it was established - the length of the disabled train - the recognised points between which it was disabled - the end from which relief is to come - the actions taken to protect the disabled train - confirmation that the intended recovery action was discussed with the locomotive engineers of the disabled train and the relief train

Replace the current multi-choice track warrant theory recertification examination for locomotive engineers with a more comprehensive examination which incorporates all track warrant control rules and regulations contained in the rulebook
