Syllabus

<p>Railroads — Use of streets — Construction of watch-box on sidewalk — Municipal consent — Injunction-</p> <p>A railroad company cannot be enjoined by a property owner from constructing a watch-box partly upon the owner’s sidewalk, where it appears that the company has the consent of the city for such construction, that the watch-box is to be used in connection with a safety gate and is of proper construction, and that the erection of the box wholly within the street would interfere with the use of the driveway, and as constructed on the sidewalk would leave ample room for the passage of pedestrians.</p>
