Which of the following items is NOT required to be covered in a job briefing?

• A. Bulletin Order items affecting movement of the train or track car
• B. Form Ds in effect
• C. Known safety hazards, including the presence of other crews working in the area
• D. Training records for each crew member

Answer: (D)

In a job briefing, the focus is to make sure everyone knows the immediate safety and operating conditions that could affect the job. The briefing should cover any bulletin order items that affect movement of the train or track car, any Form Ds that are in effect, and known safety hazards, including the presence of other crews working in the area. These items directly influence how the crew proceeds and what protections are in place.

Training records for each crew member, while important for qualification and compliance, aren’t part of what needs to be communicated about the current job’s safety and operations. Those records are administrative and don’t reflect the specific safety conditions or instructions for the task at hand.
