Abstract
A railroad safety and warning arrangement characterized by a single foot pedal which initiates the consecutive operation of a locomotive bell and both the locomotive bell and a locomotive whistle. The operation of the preceding alarms are discontinued by means of a release mechanism which selectively disengages a notched control arm from a side edge of the foot pedal.
