The PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY, Defendant-Appellant.

No. 108, Docket 23725.

United States Court of Appeals Second Circuit.

Argued Nov. 9, 1955.
Decided Nov. 23, 1955.

Seymour Schwartz, New York City (Bromsen & Gammerman, New York City, on the brief), for plaintiff-appellee.

PER CURIAM.

1

There was sufficient evidence to present an issue for the jury in support of plaintiff's contention that the operator of the electric baggage truck might have chosen a safe path on the other side of the station platform, instead of the course he followed-- next the train discharging and receiving passengers. See, e.g., Callaghan v. City of New York, 283 A.D. 388, 128 N.Y.S.2d 206.

Affirmed.
