Thanks to all who replied to my question about when and how N&W used bells
on steam locomotives.  Ken, I look forward to seeing the rule book when you
get it scanned, and jimmy, thanks for the quote you posted from the rule
book.  I now have a much better idea of bell use.

Jack,
    The following is from the N&W Operating Rule book in effect as of
Nov.18, 1951: "Rule #30 - The engine bell must be rung when an engine is
about to move, while approaching and passing public crossings at grade from
each crossing whistle post tothe crossing, when passing through tunnels and
yards, through or over streets, and when passing trains on two or more
tracks"

I have often wondered, were there any rules as to when and how bells were
used on N&W steam engines?

 

Thanks,
