406.  Fusee. 

           If a train approaches an unattended fusee burning on or near its track, the train must immediately be brought to a stop
           consistent with good train handling.

           Stop before passing the fusee when operating in accordance with Rule 518 (Movement at Restricted Speed) or Rule 520
           (Movement on Non-Main Track).

           After stopping, the train must proceed at restricted speed until the head end is 1 mile beyond the fusee.

           the train is moving.

           
           Fusees must not be used wastefully and in any case not placed where they may cause fires.
