Which position of the tram driver is correct when manually adjusting the rail switch?

Explanation

Correct answer: Facing the tram.

The forward-facing position towards the tram is dictated by safety considerations, as it allows the tram driver to maintain constant observation of the vehicle. This enables an immediate reaction in the event that the tram moves off unexpectedly or another hazard appears on the road.
