§ 40-4-103 — Increased transportation facilities prescribed

Whenever the
commission, after a hearing upon its own motion or upon complaint, finds that any
common carrier does not run a sufficient number of trains or vehicles or does not
possess or operate sufficient motive power to reasonably accommodate the traffic,
whether passenger or freight, or both, transported by or offered to it for
transportation, or does not run its trains or vehicles with sufficient frequency or at a
reasonable or proper time having regard to safety, or does not stop the same at
proper places or does not run any train or vehicle upon a reasonable time schedule
for the run, the commission has the power to make an order directing any such
common carrier to increase the number of its trains or of its vehicles or its motive
power or to change the time of starting its train or vehicle or to change the time
schedule for the run of any train or vehicle, or to change the stopping places
thereof, or to make any other change the commission may determine to be
reasonably necessary to accommodate and transport the traffic, whether
passenger or freight, or both, transported or offered to it for transportation.
