MIDLAND VALLEY R. CO. v. STATE Annotate this Case MIDLAND VALLEY R. CO. v. STATE 1914 OK 188 140 P. 406 40 Okla. 660 Case Number: 4148 Decided: 04/14/1914 Supreme Court of Oklahoma MIDLAND VALLEY R. CO. et al. v. STATE. Syllabus ¶0 RAILRRAILROADS--Orders of Corporation Commission--Appeal. The second section of the syllabus in A., T. & S. F. Ry. Co. v. State, ante, 138 P. 1026, is made the syllabus in this case. Appeal from Order No. 557 of the Corporation Commission, requiring the appellants to erect a viaduct on First street in the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Dismissed. J. W. McCloud and Edgar A. de Meules, for appellant, Midland Valley Railroad Company Clifford L. Jackson, W. R. Allen, and M. D. Green, for appellant, M., K. & T. Railway Company Charles West, Atty. Gen., and Charles L. Moore, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State PER CURIAM. ¶1 This is an appeal from order No. 557 of the Corporation Commission requiring the appellants to build a viaduct over their respective roads at First street, in the city of Tulsa, Okla. Comes the Attorney General and moves to dismiss on the ground that said order is not appealable, citing A., T. & S. F. Ry. Co. v. State, ante, 138 P. 1026, where we held that an order requiring the railway company to construct a viaduct over its tracks and right of way in Guthrie was not an appealable order. As no distinction appears to us in the character of the two orders, inasmuch as both are orders requiring the correction of an abuse which affects the people of a particular community disassociated from the use of a railway for transportation of themselves and their property, and as appellants have filed no opposition to the motion, the same is sustained on the authority of our opinion in that case.
