In daylight, which action represents the All Right hand signal?

• A. Hold arm closest to the track in the horizontal direction of the train
• B. Hold arm raised above your head
• C. Wave a red torch violently
• D. Point to the ground

Answer: (A)

The All Right signal is conveyed by a clear, horizontal hand gesture directed toward the approaching train. In daylight, you extend your arm straight out in line with the track, keeping it closest to the track so the driver can see it clearly and know it’s safe to proceed. Raising the arm above the head, waving a red torch, or pointing to the ground do not communicate this instruction and can be misinterpreted, especially to someone operating a train. This horizontal, near-the-track position provides a simple, unambiguous cue that the track ahead is clear.
