TOPIC E-REASONABLE FACILITIES.

[The common law situation is discussed in Chapters VII, IX, XX, XXIII.]

§ 935. Not required by original act.

The original interstate commerce act did not require or give the Commission power to require that carriers should furnish reasonable facilities; though it did forbid any discrimination in furnishing facilities. The common law required the furnishing of such facilities; but since the act was silent, the Commission could not require a carrier to furnish cars. Scofield v. Lake Shore & M. S. Ry., 2 Int. Com. Rep. 67, 2 I. C. C. 90 (1888); Rice v. Cincinnati, W. & B. R. R., 3 Int. Com. Rep. 841, 5 I. C. C. 193 (1891). Nor can it require a railroad to furnish refrigerator cars for the carriage of fruit. Re Transportation & Refrigeration of Fruit, 10 I. C. C. Rep. 360 (1904). So it cannot order a railroad to deliver carload freight in bulk to a connecting road. Railroad Comrs. v. Louisville & N. R. R., 10 I. C. C. Rep. 173 (1904). Nor is a railroad under the act obliged to allow a steamboat access to its wharf. Ilwaco Ry. & Nav. Co. v. Oregon S. L. & U. N. Ry., 57 Fed. 673, 6 C. C. A. 495, 5 Int. Com. Rep. 627 (1895).

936. Switching privileges.

In the same way under the original act a railroad was not bound to provide and maintain a spur track to the premises of a shipper. Mt. Vernon Milling Co. v. Chicago, M. & S. P. Ry., 7 I. C. C. Rep. 194 (1897); Red Rock Fuel Co. v. Baltimore & O. R. R., 11 I. C. C. Rep. 438 (1905). The duty of providing switching privileges was placed upon railroads in England in 1904 (ante, § 874), and now is imposed in the United States by the provision of the act of 1906 given above.

CHAPTER XXIX.
