Opinion

Per Curiam.

The plaintiff was injured while alighting from a train. Whether or not it was the train of the defendant, or of. the Long Island Railroad Company, was controverted. The appellant insists that the evidence was insufficient to carry this question to the jury, and this alone we are asked to pass upon. The .plaintiff’s case in this respect is much stronger than it was on the former appeal, and the force of the affirmative testimony offered by the defendant to show that it was the train of the Long Island Railroad Company was so weakened, by contradictions and inconsistencies, therein, and by the manifest bias of the. witnesses and their doubts on material points,.as to justify the jury in discrediting the same. This question was properly submitted to the jury. See our opinion on the former appeal in this case. Kunzmann v. N. Y. & Rockaway Beach R. R. Co., 8 Misc. Rep. 689.

Judgment and order affirmed, with costs.

Present: Van Wyck and Osborne, JJ.
