39. Should =fire= be discovered in the Train, the Steam must be instantly shut off, and the Breaks applied, and the Train be brought to a stand, the Signal of obstruction to the Line be made, and the burning waggon or waggons be detached with as little delay as possible. No attempt must ever be made to run on to the nearest water column, if it is more than =300 yards= from the place where the fire is discovered, as such a course is likely to increase the damage. 40. The movements of all Trains are under the orders of the Guard, to whose instructions as to stopping, starting, &c., the Engineman is to pay implicit attention. 41. If any part of a Train is detached when in motion, care must be taken not to stop the Train in front before the detached part has stopped, and it is the duty of the Guard of such detached part to apply his Break in time to prevent a collision with the carriages in front, in the event of their stopping. 42. Whenever a Red Board or Red Flag is carried on the last carriage or waggon of a passing Train, it is to indicate that a =Special= or =Extra Train= is to follow; and when such Extra Train is to run at night, an additional Red Light must be attached to the tail of the preceding Train. 43. Every Engineman at the end of his journey is to report to the Superintendent of Locomotive Power, or his Foreman, or to the Clerk in attendance-- _First_--As to the state of his Engine and Tender. _Second_--As to any defect in the Road or Works, Electric Telegraph posts or wires, or any unusual circumstance that may have taken place on the journey. 44. He is also to see that his Signal and Gauge Lamps are taken into the Porter’s Lodge, for the purpose of being trimmed. SPECIAL REGULATIONS. LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM SECTION. 45. Enginemen with Express Trains are to slacken speed round the curves at Weedon, Leighton, and Berkhampstead. 46. Whenever an Engineman approaches =Camden= Station in a fog, or whenever the Policeman at the South entrance of the Primrose Tunnel shows the Green Signal, he is to bring his Engine to a stand at =Chalk Farm Bridge=, unless on his arrival there the Policeman signals him to proceed. 47. The same regulation is to be observed on his approaching =Birmingham= in foggy weather; and when the Green Signal is shown by the Policeman near the =new Canal Bridge=, he is to stop at the Ticket Platform, unless there signalled to proceed. 48. Whenever the Pilot Engineman, assisting a Train from Euston, intends to run into the siding at the summit of the incline, he is to detach his Engine before arriving at the Ticket Platform, and, on approaching the Policeman at the facing points, motion to the left with his hand (by night with his hand-lamp): in the absence of this signal the Policeman is not to alter the points, but to allow the Engines and Train to pass on the Main Line.
