A. It is unlawful for any railroad to operate on its tracks within the state an engine not equipped with an automatically operated bell ringer for ringing the bell on the engine, which will cause the bell on the engine to continue to ring after being set in motion by the engineer or fireman. The device for starting or stopping the bell ringer shall be placed in a position where it can be operated by the engineer or fireman from his usual position in the cab.
B. A railroad violating this section is guilty of a petty offense for each day that any locomotive engine is used in violation of this section, but if any ringer becomes out of order while the engine in which it is installed is in use, the engine may complete its trip.
