Description
The American Statesman, a newspaper publishing company, filed this suit against Missouri Pacific Railroad Company for damages alleged to have resulted from the negligence of the railroad company in running a boxcar into the steel scaffolding (tram) extending from the American Statesmans building over a spur track owned and operated by the Missouri Pacific. The principal question is whether the trial court should have found proximate cause as a matter of law as a result of American Statesmans negligent failure to provide a clearance of twenty-two feet beneath the structure as required by Article 6559a.
