Supreme Court of Minnesota January 21, 1916, Nos. 19,559—(194) (Laurisch v. Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester & Dubuque Electric Traction Co.)

Bunn, J.

Defendant operates a railroad from Minneapolis to Mankato. About five miles north of Mankato its track crosses a public highway known as the “bluff road,” running from Mankato to St. Peter. The track, as it approaches the crossing, comes down through a ravine between a line of bluffs to the Minnesota river valley. It crosses the highway at an angle like the letter X.
