With the job memory aid of the present invention, a rail vehicle operator will have a job memory aid which displays information affecting the movement of the rail vehicle being operated. It includes a control panel and display unit (CP/DU), mounted near the operator, and a programmable logic controller (PLC) or other similar device. The device stores the valid combination of light signal aspects reflecting wayside signal information or other instructions governing the movement of rail vehicles. Push buttons, or other means, and associated circuitry are activated by the operator to record acknowledgment of information received from wayside signals or Rail Traffic Controller and/or other instructions governing the movement of the rail vehicle. The visual display acts as a job memory aid to the operator. Preferably, the present invention is used in combination with external input devices that communicate with the device of the present invention to check correspondence of rail vehicle operator inputs with actual operating authority.
