Description

The Southern Pacific Company made application to the State Corporation Commission to discontinue the agency at Taylor, and, after hearing, the application was denied. The railroad company has removed the order denying the application to this court. Taylor is an agency station on the Dawson branch between Tucumcari, N. M., and Dawson, N. M., 23 1/2 miles west of Mills and 11 1/2 miles east of French, the junction point with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway. This railroad is operated by the Southern Pacific Company as a common carrier in intrastate and interstate commerce. It was built primarily for the purpose of serving the mines at Dawson, which supplied the mines and smelters of Arizona with coal and coke for a number of years. Later, oil was substituted as fuel in the smelters and other plants, and now natural gas is very generally used throughout the trade territory of the Dawson mines. As a consequence, the amount of Dawson products now marketed is negligible compared with the output during flush times. When the traffic was heavy, the agency at Taylor was essential for safe operation of trains, but it is conceded by protestants that there is here no question involved relative to the need of an agent from the operating standpoint or for the safety of the public. The population of Taylor is less than 40, with one merchant, who gets nearly all his merchandise, except coal, by truck. He has shipped from Raton on the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway 14 to 16 cars of coal each year. The railroad business at Taylor has steadily declined.
