Opinion

Wickhem, J.

The accident out of which this case arises happened in Janesville on October 26, 1943, at 11 a. m., at the intersection of Pearl street and the tracks of defendant Railroad .Company. Lisetta Bellrichard, hereinafter called “plaintiff” for purposes of convenience, accompanied by her sons, Wayne and Andrew, aged five and four, respectively, was driving a sedan north on Pearl street. It was a bright, clear day and the left, front window of her automobile was open. Her eyesight and her hearing were good. Wayne was sitting in the front seat with his mother, and Andrew was riding on the back seat. The crossing was nof protected by gates or electric wigwag. North street comes into Pearl street at a point just south of the railroad crossing, but does not intersect. The tracks cross Pearl street diagonally at an angle of about forty-five degrees, running from southwest , to northeast, as indicated by the panoramic view published herewith.
