Whenever more than one firm, person, or corporation owns and operates a railroad and trains over and across either Grant Street or Union Street, whereby the respective railroad tracks of each form a common crossing of the public streets, automatic flasher light signals and automatic crossing arms or gates shall be constructed, operated, and maintained jointly or in conjunction by and between such respective firms, persons, and corporations. However, the failure to act jointly or in conjunction with each other shall not relieve each respective firm, person, or corporation from compliance with the terms of this section.
