219.17 UNIFORM WARNING SIGNS.
The commissioner by rule shall require that uniform warning signs be placed at grade
crossings. There must be at least three distinct types of uniform warning signs: a home crossing
sign, for use in the immediate vicinity of the crossing; an approach crossing sign, to indicate the
approach to a grade crossing; and, when deemed necessary, a stop sign with the word "stop"
plainly appearing on it, to indicate that persons on the highway approaching the crossing, whether
in vehicles or otherwise, must come to a stop before proceeding over the grade crossing.
