Art. 6280. [6426 TO 6428] TO DO REPAIR WORK IN TEXAS. All
railroad corporations operating in, and having their repair shops
within this State, are required to repair, renovate or rebuild in
this State all defective or broken cars, coaches, locomotives or
other equipment owned or leased by said corporation in this State,
when such rolling stock is within this State, and shall be
prohibited from sending or removing any such rolling stock out of
this State to be repaired, renovated or rebuilt, when the same is in
a defective or broken condition, and within this State, when such
railway shall have, or be under obligation to have proper
facilities in this State to do such work. This article does not
apply to companies having less than sixty continuous miles of
railroad in operation in this State, nor in case of strike, fire or
other unforeseen casualties and emergencies; and is not to be
construed to require a violation of the Federal safety appliance
law; and no railway shall be required to haul such disabled
equipment a greater distance for repairs at a point within this
State than would be necessary to reach their repair shops in another
State.
