Every railroad corporation in this state must, within a reasonable time after its road is finally located, cause to be made a map and profile thereof, and of the land acquired for the use thereof, and the boundaries of the several counties through which the road may run, and file the same in the office of the secretary of state; and also like maps of the parts thereof located in different counties, and file the same in the office of the recorder of the county in which such parts of the road are, there to remain of record forever.

If, at any time after the location of the line of the railroad and the filing of the maps and profiles thereof, as provided in the preceding section, it appears that the location can be improved, the directors may, as provided in subdivision 7, of section 62-104 , alter or change the same, and cause new maps and profiles to be filed, showing such changes, in the same offices where the originals are on file, and may proceed, in the same manner as the original location was acquired, to acquire and take possession of such new line, and must sell or relinquish the lands owned by them for the original location, within five (5) years after such change. No new location as herein provided, must be run so as to avoid any points named in their articles of incorporation. History: [(62-202) R.S., sec. 2668; reen.

Whenever the track of one (1) railroad intersects or crosses the track of another railroad, whether the same be a street railroad, wholly within the limits of a city or town, or other railroad, the rails of either or each road must be so cut and adjusted as to permit the passage of the cars on each road with as little obstruction as possible; and in case the persons or corporations owning the railroads cannot agree as to the compensation to be made for cutting and adjusting the rails, the condemnation of the right of way over the one for the use of the other road may be had in proceedings under the Code of Civil Procedure, and the damages assessed and the right of way granted as in other cases.

TITLE 62 RAILROADS AND OTHER PUBLIC UTILITIES CHAPTER 2 CONSTRUCTION OF RAILROADS 62-206. Crossing other railroads and highways. Whenever the track of such railroad crosses a railroad or highway, such railroad or highway may be carried under, over, or on a level with the track as may be most expedient; and in cases where an embankment or cutting necessitates a change in the line of such railroad or highway, the corporation may take such additional lands and materials as are necessary for the construction of such road or highway on such new line. If such other necessary lands cannot be had otherwise, they may be condemned as provided in the Code of Civil Procedure; and when compensation is made therefor, the same becomes the property of the corporation.
