A failure should not be counted more than one time in items 1, 2, 3, and 4; the failure
should be classified under the basic system or appliance of which it forms an essential
part. E.g.: assume grounds cause a block signal to indicate a false proceed causing
corresponding indications of a cab signal system on each train approaching this point,
such failures should be included in item 1, Block System.

A false proceed failure is a failure of an appliance, device, method, or system
to function or indicate as required by Title 49 CFR Part 236, that results in a more
favorable aspect than intended or other condition hazardous to the movement of a
