O’Hara, J.
(concurring in reversal). I agree with Mr. Justice Black in that plaintiff failed to sustain the burden of presentation of evidence upon which a jury might find that the physical circumstances existing at the grade crossing involved in this case gave rise to any additional duty-rule such as this Court expounded in the Emery and Baldinger Cases. 
The Emery-Baldinger “additional duty-rule” is not here involved.
I also agree that the instructions quoted in Mr. Justice Smith’s opinion were reversibly erroneous. I am unable to discern their relevance to any issue joined, and particularly to the “additional duty-rule.”
I vote to reverse and remand, with costs to plaintiff.
