what is the difference between b and c? Just how you broach the question. They are both right!

I think D should count too, but I'm a nobody.

yeah, B & D are the same...No? Only a tug would be pushing a barge ahead.

Only the tug doing the pushing shows the Y-Y lights off the stern. The barge being pushed ahead or towed alongside the tug doesn't show the Y-Y lights however they would show the yellow flashing light off the bow. This is for INLAND only.
