Use the practice tests for General Knowledge, Air Brake and Combination only.

NOTE: Headphones are available for audio to take the test. I would advise anyone to use them, it helps you better understand the questions.

If you do not know the answer use the skip button. It does not count as a wrong answer, continue to answer the questions asked. Once you reach a certain amount of correct or incorrect questions the test shuts off. You may never get the question you skipped again.
