What does a Summary Bulletin Order (SBO) include?

New rules for train control
Information from previously issued Bulletin Orders
Operating schedules for trains
Advisory notices related to operations

The correct answer is: Information from previously issued Bulletin Orders

A Summary Bulletin Order (SBO) is a document that compiles information pertinent to operations, particularly consolidating details from previously issued Bulletin Orders. This centralization ensures that employees have access to critical updates and changes in one place, making it easier for them to stay informed about operational protocols, safety measures, or any modifications that may impact their duties. By including information from past Bulletin Orders, the SBO serves as a snapshot that captures the necessary historical context and ongoing operational directives relevant to the current situation. This is necessary for maintaining safety, compliance, and efficient operation within the rail system. Other choices, while related to the operational aspect of rail services, do not capture the specific function of the SBO in summarizing prior orders.
