The correct answer is A. Three long whistles.
The fouling marks are the white lines on the track that indicate the boundaries of the track. The driver must sound a whistle to indicate that the fouling marks are not clear if the train is approaching the fouling marks and there is a risk of the train going off the track. The whistle must be sounded three times in quick succession.
Option B is incorrect because it is not the correct number of whistles to sound. Option C is incorrect because it is not the correct type of whistle to sound. Option D is incorrect because it is not a valid option.
