There is no duty or obligation on railroad companies in this State to fence in or place guards along their roads where there may be cuts or embankments, notwithstanding a public road may run parallel to such railroad.

(a) Sections 706, 707 of the Code apply to road crossings — not to roads running parallel to railroads.

Judgment affirmed.
