It is typically used to move trains in and out of sidings, or to move trains around within a station yard.<\/p>\n<p>Gradient is the slope of a railway track. It is measured in units of &#8220;per mille&#8221;, which is a percentage. A gradient of 1 in 260 means that the track rises 1 metre for every 260 metres of horizontal distance.<\/p>\n<p>DRM permission is required for hand shunting outside station section in gradient ST 1-260 because it is a safety hazard. When a train is shunted by hand, it is not under the control of a locomotive. This means that it is more likely to derail, especially if the track is on a gradient.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the correct gradient. Option A, ST 1-600, is a gradient that is too steep for hand shunting. Option B, 1-400, is a gradient that is too shallow for hand shunting. Option D, None of these, is incorrect because it does not represent any of the possible gradients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;ST 1-600&#8243; option2=&#8221;1-400&#8243; option3=&#8221;ST 1-260&#8243; option4=&#8221;None of these&#8221; correct=&#8221;option4&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[693],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24385","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-indian-railway","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>DRM permission is necessary when hand shunting outside station section takes place in gradient A.
