21. When from accident to the Train, or from any other cause, it is necessary to secure the attention of the Engineman, the Guard is to apply his Break sharply, and as suddenly release it. This operation repeated several times is almost certain, from the check it occasions, to attract the notice of the Driver, to whom the Red Flag or Lamp must be immediately waved as a signal to stop.
22. The Guard must not allow any Passenger or parcel to be conveyed by the Train unless properly booked; and if he has reason to suppose that any Passenger is without a Ticket, or is not in the proper Carriage, he must request the Passenger to show the Ticket. When a Passenger is desirous of changing his place from an inferior to a superior carriage, the Guard must have this done by the Clerk at the first Station.
23. Great importance is attached to the most prompt delivery of Letters, Invoices, and Despatches consigned to the care of a Guard; and any neglect in this particular will be severely dealt with.
24. Prisoners who are in charge of the Police, and persons afflicted with insanity, must never be mixed along with the other Passengers, but be placed in a compartment, and, if practicable, in a carriage, by themselves.
25. Servants and others connected with the Railway (Directors excepted) are required to book and pay their fare the same as other Passengers, except the following Officers, who travel free, and have the power to grant Passes to individuals proceeding on the Company’s business only:—
