Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Railroads in Pennsylvania, Vol. 3: Including the Law Relating to Street Railways During the twelve years which have elapsed since the orig inal publication of this book, the law of railroads and partien larly the law of street railways in Pennsylvania, has expanded to a remarkable extent. It is during this period that electricity has come into universal use as a substitute for horse power in the operation of street railways, with the result of a great ex tension of electric railways into the country districts. The location and construction of such railways has given rise to complicated and novel litigation, and the courts have been called upon in numerous cases to define the respective rights of the railway companies, municipalities and abutting land owners. The law of negligence has also been expanded to cover the new conditions resulting from increased speed and other dangers incident gthe operzfiihn of electric cars. These conditions seem to justify the publication of an additional volume of this work. In this volume the statutes of 1905 are included, and the decisions brought down to January first.
