Answer: Four
Feedback:
The 4 hours refer to on-duty time. Scenario 1: You are on duty at 1800, but GTB was issued at 1300 so you must contact the dispatcher. Scenario 2: You are on duty at 1800, GTB was issued at 1500, but you did not get on the train until 2000. The GTB is still valid because, although it was 5 hours ago, the GTB was issued within 4 hours of on-duty time.
